News: Marty McFly's self-lacing shoes are FINALLY here


This news article tells us about a new technology from Nike called HyperAdapt that tie your shoelaces when feels a sensor situated in the shoe sole. Also the article explains us that they still working on this project and we can buy the first pair on autumn but the price is unknown.

In my opinion this is interesting but practically nobody will buy these shoes because the price is going to be too expensive and actually the difference from another shoes is unappreciable. This is not a thing that are going to change completely the market of shoes, It’s only a reference to the film Back to the future and only rich people or geeks of this film are going to buy this.

Nike’s latest reveal just a few months into 2016 finally brings Marty McFly’s iconic sneakers to life. The company has unveiled the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0, which automatically tighten when the wearer’s heel hits a sensor. And, they will be available to Nike+ members later this year

My say: The caducity dates of technology devices

All the people know that technologic devices, especially the smartphones get worse as time goes on. In my opinion this is because the companies designs   to do it and obligate to the consumer to buy a new phone. In my case I have a phone for two years and the last year was horrible, it get too low and wrong in all aspects. What I want to say with this, is that for the highest prices we paid for a phone, they should give us a phone that can work perfectly as long as we want, and in that case we only are going to buy a new smartphone to get new advances like a better screen, camera, etc.

My say: The TV future

Today I practically don’t watch TV except when I’m eating or to watch a football or basketball match. I think the future of TV is worse than now because today we have Internet and we can watch the same things that do in TV, when and where we want with our smartphone or tablet. In my opinion use internet is more usually than TV because the majority of the content that are on TV, is on Internet, and also you have more content that are not on TV. In summary in my opinion the business of TV is going to be worse in future for this reasons ant it will be only an object to whatch te content better and bigger.

My say: Obligatory readings

On the High School we have to read obligatory lectures that teacher order you. I think it’s a bad idea in general because if you don’t like the book you have to read it because you are going to do an exam of that reading. That makes it bored for the student and that’s not good because if he start to hate reading, he are not going to read more in future. I’m agree with some cultural books that are obligatory, but if the book isn’t cultural I think we have to choose the book we want according to a list that teacher gives us for example.  

My say: lucky in life

The majority of the world population have similar lives that follow the same patron. First you’re studding for lots of years to get a good job and earn some money in future. Normally this is a normal job and you don’t earn a lot of money, but there are people who have a big luck and can earn so much money doing less than you. For example all the famous actors, professional sportsmen etc. obviously not everyone can do the things that they do but why that works are more valued than others? And in the opposite side there are the poor people who have no money to buy food. This shows us the unequal world where we live.

News: The plane fuelled by ALGAE: Zero-carbon Eraole craft is set to fly across the Atlantic

  • This article is about a new plane that will travel from New York to Paris next June. The difference is it's powered by algae biofuel and solar panels. The flight will take 60 hours and the pilot will also travel with little space, no rest and no pressure in the plane! The idea is to make carbon dioxide emissions less and if the flight is successful they will make a big plane to carry passengers. 
  • In my opinion that's a good idea beacuse using a normal plane we left big quantities of residual gases that are not good for the Earth, but using that plane there are no apreciable residues. On the other hand I think it's too dangerous because now is in an experimental process but also it isn't practichal for the time it spend. The poblation (incuded me) prefeers to fly with a plane that contamines but get fast, than in a echologic plane that get low and takes a lot of more time than the other. So thay have to continue investigating but untill the have a version symilar or better than the actual planes, it can't be usefull.

My say: Spring Break Miami


For people who don’t know Spring Break Miami, it’s a holiday week (really it’s more than a week) when the students have holidays like here in Easter, actually thees dates coincide more or less. In this week there are a lots of parties on the beach, pools and hotels, and also one of the biggest music festivals in the world called Ultra Music Festival. There is a crazy week for people who live there and for tourists obviously, and I think we can do something similar here in Barcelona for example. I’m not saying a full week  of parties like there, but a two days festival for example, because it’s a week when the adolescence have holidays, except if someone works or goes away on holidays. I think is a good idea because it will be good for us and for the city in the economic aspect. Because here in Spain there are a lots of big parties but only in summer and this will be different.

My say: The Wi-Fi dependence

Now when I’m typing this, I’m having problems with my home Wi-Fi, and I have to admit this a very horrible and annoying sensation. If it happens for one day it doesn’t matter but if this happens for a long time it is very stressful because when you are going to use internet with mobile phone, computer, console etc, it goes too slow and makes you angry. When you have no internet it’s difficult to find something that gives you entertainment (especially if you can’t get out of your home). That shows me how much are we connected in our daily lives and the problems we have when we can’t use internet. We are addicted to WiFi!

News: Xbox owners will soon be able to play online with friends who have Sony PlayStations and PCs

This news article explains about soon Xbox players have cross-platform that lets you play with other gamers who have not necessarily the same console as you. It also mentions that the company presented this idea to game developers because if they do not agree, this project can't work. Also this article tells us that first game to accept the cross-platform is Rocket League.
In my opinion that's an interesting project because it means that people who have Xbox can play with other people who have PS4 or PC's. This news can change the console business, at the moment people buy a console depending on their friends because if they don't have the same platform, they can't play together.  If this project continued, the sales of Xbox are going to increase because there are more players online and it makes the game more fun.




Microsoft has revealed the Xbox will open up cross-platform support to games developers, meaning gamers can play on other multiplayer networks, including PC and PS4 networks. Pictured is the Xbox One and PS4
