I have been in and out of different colleges trying to see what to do. I want to be able to build, maintain and troubleshoot computers, but I am a little confused in which direction I should go. Into the Information Technology side or the engineering side to become a technician.

If you want to become a computer technician, all you need is a CompTIA A+ Certification. Get some books on A+ certification, study hard, register and pay for the exam on Prometric.com or Vue.com, select your venue. Attend the exam, pass the test, and you’ll be qualified.

Experience is also important. Visit IT forums and websites and see how people troubleshoot problems. Learn to use Microsoft’s Virtual Pc or Vmware Workstation.

Is that the same kind of degree? I know learning technology and educational technology is the same thing.

I know information technology is different from information systems.

But, is educational technology the same thing as information technology?

Not at all. While educational technologists may use information technology in their jobs, they have a very different purpose. I’ve worked at a couple of universities which used educational technologists heavily, and their job was to work with instructors to help them design and implement ways of teaching effectively. Yes, they taught the faculty about new hardware and software developments that they might be able to use to make their classes more effective (I remember when podcasting first became available, they helped some instructors use that to record their lectures), but they also help faculty design projects to assign to their students, or write exams to optimally test for how well students have met class objectives, etc. I also remember at one point going to our instructional technologist because I was teaching a lot of student athletes, and I noticed that they had a lot of kinetic energy and found it hard to sit still in class, even if they were interested. So we designed some class exercises which would allow students to move around more often so that I could keep their attention.

I’m in grade 12 and I want to know what education I need to get into an IT career.

I live in Toronto, Canada and there are only 2 Universities (outside the city) that offer a Bachelor of Information Technology.

There are three colleges in my area that offer diplomas for Systems Technology, Systems Technician, Information Systems Business Analyst, and Networking.

Hi! My name is Karl and I am planning to take up Information Technology in college because I really am fond of computers and the internet. I just want to know the following:

1. What is Information Technology all about?
2. What are the possible jobs that I can have after I finished studying Information Technology?

Thanks for answering!

1) Information in the narrow sense is about the use of computers to accomplish tasks and the associated maintenance of said systems.

Hi! I am doing a report on information technology and my assigned report is about how IT plays an important role in a success of a business.Do you have some ideas or advice for me. Thanks a lot!

without technology there wouldn’t be very much of an economy. technology helps business people track finance track shipments that they make. so overall there would be chaos in marketing because we need that technology.

hope i helped

Somebody has some good information on how to make money with online dating sites?

you have to sign up as an affiliate, and then you get people to join, and they would have to sign up under your affiliate link, and then you get a commission every month when they pay their membership fee.

If you go to the very bottom of the dating site, it will either say "affiliates" or "join us" or "partner with us", click on that and it will tell you what you need to do.

When starting a new online dating site, how does one get people, possibly already on other sites? I’m sure you don’t start with NO people.

Attractive display banners on other dating sites could be very effective. Imagine a gadget ad on a site like eharmony, okcupid, or jdate, that links the user to your site and asks for a signup.

I was browsing an online dating website (don’t ask which one but we’ll see how many people actually READ this descript and ask anyway) and decided to turn on my webcam.

I did NOT realize that I had THIS much conversation with myself! UGH!

Post your thoughts on dating online and what types of experiences you’ve had.

Feel free to attach a video!! :O)

Which places would you suggest I learn to find how online dating can be used to find real love and not only sexual encounters?

There are many internet sites providing online dating information.
You can answers to some of your questions and a good ebook on http://idateblog.com
Hope it helps you.

I’ve recently become single (unfortunately) and I’m thinking of venturing into the world of online dating (a bit scary!). I’m looking for some friendly advice on sites people have used and hopefully had some success with.

Sorry to hear that. I tried a couple of sites and personally I found the regional ones are better (and normally cheaper) so it’s probably best you go for a local one rather than one of the bigger sites. I just seem to get more genuine responses. Initially I tried match.com but didn’t get anywhere with that. More recently I have been using http://www.saltiresingles.co.uk and so far so good.

Good luck

Has anyone that 20-30 has success with an online dating site? Ive looked around but some sites look like there just filled with fake profiles of women to lure guys in.

no offence, but if ur planning to or are using a dating site, you’ve probly made a couple of wrong turns along the way. what ever happened to meeting someone in a club?! xx

I’m a newbie and online dating concept is new for me. Suggest me a good online dating service.

The best one out there is http://wwwsinglesnet.info
That’s where I met my boyfriend!

I am recently single and have very little time to do the social scene. I am looking for a free or relatively low costing online dating site to meet people in my area. Any suggestions?

They are the best
http://best-free-dating-site-usa.blogspot.com/

About how much should it cost? How should I go about starting this? Any tips? And finally do you have any helpful links? I have tried to google this question for information but all I get is advice on how to find the right online dating site for me. If you could answer any of these questions I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Your best bet is to just do it Jen. You’ll need to use meta-links and potentially search engine fees to get your site some traffic. There are quite a few dating sites now, so you’ll need a theme linking potential people together (by recreation activities, or christian/jew/whatever). The online game is a learn by doing activity. Do it. Just do it.

Before you go on that online date, check out this commercial. Written and directed by Greg Scarnici

A friend of mine is investing a lot of time, money, and resources into launching an online dating website. What would be the best way to launch the site? How best should it be marketed? Where and how should it be marketed online? What kind of offline marketing should be used? Anybody know anything about Ad Networks and how a site can generate revenue from them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Thanks for all the answers so far!!

This website is great for web advertising. It’s a free targeted advertising (based on you selecting various categories you would like to be included in) and link exchange network. You put other websites text ads on your page and yours appears on others. And it really is 100% free, forever. While it’s not something that guarantees traffic it also doesn’t cost anything, so why not try it?
