Interviewing Customers No. 2

                                        

                                       

                                      

                                    

Due to not being able to post the first assignment in conjunction to this, I can't really compare my opportunities from both cases. However, I'm glad I interview customers because it gave me a chance to really hear people opinions on current situations at UF.

For those that are taking this corse next semester, the three tips I can give you are: Don't wait till the very end to do this, think of what you're going to ask before you record, and learn how to edit videos (which I sadly did not do.)

Week 5 Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? What stood out the most was learning that any work that was created before January 1,1978, are not protected under the copyright law which means someone can easily plagiarize one’s work form the 50’s.

2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you. Reading the business traveler section was a little confusing because it's a bit insane to be over protected over your phone...

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why? Why does a work have to be written or recorded in order to be copyrighted?

How was trademarking discovered?

4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How? Due to now have any background in the topic read, there isn't anything I disagree with.

Elevator Pitch No. 1

                                                Umbrella-ella 

I want you guys to close your eyes for a second and just imagine yourself riding a bike through the rain. Some of you are probably thinking why am I biking through the rain right now. Don't stop, just keep on biking. Now make a choice. Wear a rain jacket or nothing. If you're smart, you know that regardless of what you wear, you're still getting wet. Now, imagine a cover surrounding your bike blocking off both the rain and wind. Imagine breezing through the road , heading to a meeting that starts in 10 minutes with a cover protecting you and your personal belongings. It's amazing right. Come back to reality as you slowly remember you don't have a bike cover . It's sad isn't it? With my business plan, I hope to supply bike shops with this umbrella type cover that goes over ones bike but can also easily disassemble itself by just on click. Many of us don't drive cars or only have to commute to short distances . Living in florida isn't always easy. It rains. A lot. With my bike cover, I can guarantee that you will not get on drip of water on you or your belongings.
