Reaction Paper: GDayx Philippines
Last
November 23, 2013, Saturday, we attended an event titled GDayx Philippines held
at Xavier School. It was sponsored by Google and the Digital World. Several
sessions were conducted by different speakers with topics about Google and its
features that can help us in different situations and circumstances. Google
maps for crisis, Google maps for business, and blogs for business are the three
topics that we chose to hear. Even if we were not required to attend this
event, I am glad we went.
It is
important to have seminars like this for they are very helpful and informative.
For instance, google maps for crisis. It was discussed how can be Google maps
be used as a big help in aiding problems and supporting people that were
affected by floods and other natural calamities. The next topic is Google maps
for business. The speaker showed that it would be nice to have your business in
the Google maps so that other people can look for it. Google map maker was also introduced and I
think businessmen would really love it for it would be beneficial to their
business and it is free! Blogs for business was enjoyable because the speaker
himself was also having fun with his talk to the audience. He showed a business blog for his friend’s
business and it was good and not just valuable to the owner but also to the
customer that would like to see the business. Putting business in blogs is just
a great idea. Of course blog making is free in Google.
The topics
that were discussed are mostly about for businessmen or for people at their
age. I think that it would nice if they included topics that are suitable for
students like us too; Google features that will be a great help and new
learnings for me and to students at my age. Although time will come that we can
already use the things and ideas in the GDayx event.
But all in
all I think that the seminar is not a waste of time for me and all the other
listeners. I learned more about Google, its features and how can it be more
helpful to people. And that, really, is enough for me to say that it was a
worthy event to be attended by people.
