DISCUSSION

 

More and more businesses are using Online Office Applications.  

What are the advantages and disadvantages of using these types of applications?

Why would a company want to start using this type of solution? 

Be thorough with your answer. 

I am referring to Spreadsheets, Word Processing and Presentation Software.  

Please do not start a thread about job applications or other types of applications that can be submitted online.  

The application for this forum is referring to the office software only.

 Online office aplications is the right tool for beign more productive and can be used by people of any age to simplyfy functions.For example Word makes it very easy to create documents by using data base.One feature that is outstanding on word is the ability to mark up the same documents for changes.Other advantages is that there are thousands of templates available so its very easy to create a brochure based on a template some one has already designed.This is very recommended for a company because can produce the most of the documents traditionally created by a marketing deparment.It reduce the time and cost. I think one disadvantages is the cost,it can be very expensive and always are going to need internet.The other is the complexity,some users can be overwhelmed by the many features available. 

 In my opinion, Online Office offers a service of comfort, convenience, organization and better control of everything. Today’s offices use it because, as I said before, it brings all kinds of benefits compared to times before, where everything was used manually with files. They were stored in boxes or desks and this brought with it deterioration of important documents and others. Today there is Online Office which allows you to store information digitally, which does not deteriorate and you can keep it archived indefinitely. They also use it due to the convenience of work since you stop the employees find it easier and more comfortable to search for any information or create the same hackberry among others and due to this there is no longer loss of documents or the need to review papers that should be treated with care due to the time of antiquity

Page Responsiveness is included in your Presentation points.

Any creative additions are welcome

Visualization and analysis of data

 Select any example visualization or infographic and imagine the contextual factors have changed:

  1. If the selected project was a static work, what ideas do you have for potentially making it usefully interactive? How might you approach the design if it had to work on both mobile/tablet and desktop?
  2. If the selected project was an interactive work, what ideas do you have for potentially deploying the same project as a static work? What compromises might you have to make in terms of the interactive features that wouldn’t now be viable?
  3. What about the various annotations that could be used? Thoroughly explain all of the annotations, color, composition, and other various components to the visualization.
  4. What other data considerations should be considered and why? 
  5. Update the graphic using updated data, in the tool of your choice (that we’ve used in the course), explain the differences.

Be sure to show the graphic (before and after updates) and then answer the questions fully above.  This assignment should take into consideration all the course concepts in the book.  Be very thorough in your response.  The paper should be at least three pages in length and contain at least two-peer reviewed sources.

Write personal opinion!

Make sure to do proper Citation!

 You should be consulting ACADEMIC or PROFESSIONAL WRITTEN/PRODUCED video or written content at this stage of the research process. Because YouTube is a popular streaming website and not the creator of all of the videos on the platform, you may search for background research on the site with a critical eye to the accuracy and the credibility of the content. Verify that the video was produced by a reputable academic, industry, or journalistic organization that is relatively free of editorial bias. Avoid video content produced by entertainment channels or otherwise non-professional or non-academic producers of video content. Do not cite Wikipedia, pop-culture blogs, or otherwise open-source, non-professional, or nonacademic web publications.
