Blog #8- Summary

Overall, I think this project was a really helpful one. It allowed me to think of a idea, yet really explore the depth of the idea and how it would come about. This project also really helped me because I was able to take some of the concepts we learned about in class that I did not fully understand and then apply them to my idea and then they made more sense. Throughout the project, I think my idea has really grown and I have been able to think about how this app really could work in the world today.

During the course of the project, I was able to think of new ideas to enhance the PhotoConnect application. Each week in lecture, when we learned something new, it benefited me that much more when I came back to write my post because I always had a new idea or way to make the app better. Some of the ideas did not work and some of them did not but at least it really got me thinking like an entrepenur.

Through the entrepreneurship project, I was really able to take a lot out of what I learned. I gained knowledge on topics I was unfamiliar with, like bits & bytes, input/output, and hardware. I also liked being able to comment on other people's blogs because it gave me the chance to see what other people's ideas were and if they were similar to mine. Another thing I found useful was researching the professional blogger. I was able to see some of the ups and downs to applications for smartphones, different ideas when applied to applications, and much more. Here are the links to the different blogs I commented on:
