Week 3-Privacy and Spreadsheet Essentials

When coming up with a new idea or invention there are guidelines that one must follow in order to be successful.  In class this week we learned about the importance of privacy.  Once something is put online it is there for good.  It is very difficult to remove or conceal information once it gets out.  This is very important to keep in mind when coming up with a new unique idea.  Whenever something is put online one must be very careful the way they say things, and keep in mind that it can be viewed by a vast group of people.  People may comment on your ideas and have different opinions, but one has to be careful not to reveal too much information on the internet.  If someone was interested in the invention or idea, they should find a way to privately talk to you about it so that it's not open to everyone on the internet.

Another topic we covered this week in class was on spreadsheets specifically on Excel.  We were able to discuss and uncover the many benifits of using a program such as Excel.  Excel is a very useful tool for a large amount of tasks such as creating graphs, comparing information, managing finances, collecting data, organizing information, and even performing calculations.  All of these tasks are very helpful when managing a business or starting up one.  Excel would help one to keep track of all the work and help complete it quickly and efficiently.

Both of these topics I can use to promote and organize my entrepreneural idea.  When using the internet it is very important not to reveal to much to the public.  By keeping information private and specifically contacting those who are involved or need to know specific information, it will protect the company's identity and restrict unneeded information from getting through.  Also using Excel would help to keep information on the product organized and proficient.  Both of these topics this week would help increase ones productivity as an entrepreneur.
