Advanced uses of Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word

I think that Microsoft Word is one of the most common computer programs. I started using it to complete my assignments when I studied in the university. For me, the spell check, the function of Microsoft Word, is really useful when I taping my assignments. But I had a big trouble about lost hours of work on the assignments when the computer crashed last semester. I lost three important assignments which had to hand in that week. I still confuse why the computer save my work to other style file (.dat). The given exercise is extremely easy; I did not have any problem to complete the exercise. However, I never used mailing option before. Through this exercise, I fund that it is very useful for business mailing database.

Microsoft Excel

I learned how to use Microsoft Excel when I study “Business Statistics” two years ago. It is definitely a very handy tool to handle accounts, especially being able to calculate complex formulas and create graphs using the data. It is really useful when I need to handle a large amount of important figures within the same formula.

3D worlds and socialising on the internet

I use MSN and QQ programs to chat with my friends and family. MSN are mainly text with very limited animation, the animation are mainly emotion icons 3D chatting is definitely different than regular MSN chatting. I think that QQ game just like a kind of 3D program. I can play game on line in its gaming room. It feels more or less like the "real world" and since I can make a person chat, which seems more like face to face playing and chatting, I may start to believe that I am actually in this space, and may act like it.
