The article I read was, The Windy City Teams with Microsoft on Cloud Strategy. The cloud is I believe servers that allow access to the internet in a public or private area. The clouds are consider a community cloud or a hybrid cloud. According to, The Windy City Teams with Microsoft on Cloud Strategy Rahm Emanuel will transfer 30,000 Chicago employees to Microsoft Office 365. I think everything in the future will be using some kind of cloud to get access to everything that is on the internet.

Study: Texting while walking affects your balance

Asynchronous and Synchronous are both used to communicate. Emailing is used to send a message electronically. Texting is used to text someone using a cell phone and is  faster then having to call if you are busy. For example, you are in class and unable to talk, so a person could decide to text "in class can't talk". Rather then leaving the class and distracting others. Synchronous such as Skype can be used to communicate using video chat, chatting with people long distance without being charged. Another one is IM which is similar to Skype.  I think Asynchronous is when a person is not able to see the other person whom they are chatting with, but Synchronous a person is able to see the other person. The article I read was "Texting while walking affects your balance" I learned texting while walking can be very dangerous. In the article it stated, "people who type or read on their phones while walking are less likely to look at their surroundings, keep their balance or walk in a straight line."  I seen a woman in the video walk into a sink hole, and another woman whom walked into a water fountain. .
