I have finally completed my Multimedia Ebook which can now be viewed on share-point.
The program I was originally meant to use was Notland but due to the difficulties I was facing I have decided to use Powerpoint. Though I had no access to Powerpoint on my home PC I looked up the information, saved it and when I got to school I would put the information on the Powerpoint.
My Ebook contains hyperlinks to other slides, videos, images and sound. The easiest part of producing the ebook was making the hyperlinks. The hardest part on the other hand was transferring everything from one computer to another. During the process of the assignment I have learnt how to download videos off Youtube. The Ebook is also 25 slides long. :)

Ebook....
So far in the Multimedia Ebook I have made links and slides for two topic I am doing. The topics I have chosen are Netbooks, Social Networking, CPU and Bluetooth.
The program I originally was using was Notaland but later discovered there isn't a way you can link to other pages. I decided i will use Powerpoint though I won't be able to access the Ebook at my home PC.

JUSTIFICATION
I would like to use Notaland as the basis of this assignment mainly because it would be easier for me to access at home as well as here at school. Notaland is an efficient and free program that allows you to make many different pages on your own personal 'notebook.' At home I do not have access to Powerpoint, therefore not being able to work on it after school hours.

Evidence of research into Multimedia presentation tools
Versatility What media does it allow me to use (text, images, video)?
Ease of use How friendly is the user interface for the designer (you)? How easy is it to add components to my presentation? How friendly is the user interface for the user, can visitors find what they need on your presentation? Are you able to create a menu system or is the user forced to worh through your presentation in a linear predetermined fashion?
Collaboration How well does the online tool allow me to work with my partner? Can we both work on the presentation at the same time?

Nota
Versatility: Nota allows users to create, shate and collaborate on persenations and virtually any other form of online material. Nota's toolset can instantly integrate text, video, maps, clip art, photos from web albums or on local PC, licensed-free images from Flickr, and material from a ever expanding array of sources. When the work is completed, users are able to link their work to social networks such as Facebook, Twitter or share with friends.

The CPU
What is the function of the CPU?
CPU is the heart of any computer. Like a car it's the engine that runs the computer.
What was the name of the first CPU?
Intel 4004
Describe how the speed of CPU's has changed.
Its expanential. (Varies throughout the years but always rising)
What does MIPS measure?
MIPS stands for "millions of intructions per second." It is the rough measure of the performance of a CPU.
Research what is a dual processor, what is multitasking and how do the two work together.
Dual core processors have two separate cores on the same physical machine. This means they can do two tasks at the same time without interfering one with the other or using up the others memory or processing speed. These can be located on the same mother board or separate mother boards. These types of processors are used when several different tasks or operations need to be done simultaneously. Mutlitasking and dual core processing go hand in hand because the two micro-processors work on the one computer but doing two different things at the same time.

Broadband
What is broadband?
Broadband is defined as using a wide range of frequenciesin high-capacity telecommunications.
Outline the methods of delivery of broadband (wireless, cable, ADSL and fibre)? Identify the speed of each method.
Wireless Broadband- This typically employs the current low-cost 802.11 Wi-Fi radio systems to link up remote locations over great distances, but can use other higher-power radio communications systems as well. Cable Broadband- Used commonly by television networks and telecommunication network.
ADSL- Provides digital data transmission over the wires of local telephone networks. 256 kbit/s to 20 Mbit/s
Fibre Broadband- By fiber-optic cables connected directly to buildings will deliver broadband speeds up to 100 megabits per second. Australia has already begun rolling out the network over the country using fiber-optic cables to 90 percent of Australian homes, schools and business.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
Wireless Broadband- Advantage: Access internet from anywhere. More devices are able to use it at the same time. Disadvantage: Other radio communication systems may interfere and jam the service. Some wireless broadband systems may be faulty.
Cable Broadband- Advantage: Less expensive. Disadvantage: ...
ADSL- Advantage: Delivers data faster. Disadvantage: Speed may vary because of the ADSL technology.
Fibre Broadband- Advantage: Send data/signals and communicate faster and better with people internationally. Disadvantage: ...
Give examples of broadband providers and identify the costs.
Google- Google Fibre Broadband is said to vary from $4000 to install in one single home.
Vodafone- Vodafone's Pocket Wi-Fi cost a minimum of $348 for 6GB.
Telstra- Telstra's ADSL Business Broadband costs $120 for 25GB over a 24 month plan or $240 for 50BG+ over a 12 month plan.
The Fedral Gonvernment is thinking of rolling out a national broadband network (The NBN). Research the NBN and find out:
a) Method of delivery
Using optic-fibres wires, fixed wireless and satellite technology
b) Expected speed
25/5-100/4 Mbps
c) Cost
Upto $99.50/month for 500+ GB
