Week 5

Google Map offers street maps, a route planner for traveling by foot, car, or public transport and an urban business locator for numerous countries around the world. It also offers stat elite view, terrain view and even street views. It is a very useful tool to find out your route and have an idea of how the street or place looks like especially with the street views.


I’ve made good use of Google Map to find out the speed limit signs planted on Tampines Ave 10 after receiving a summon from the Traffic Police. My summon letter proved to have a discrepancy as I was summoned for travelling over 60km/hr on that road when official sites state that the speed limit for that road was 70km/hr.


Hence, I went on Google Map and went on the street view and conscientiously check for the speed limit signs.


Alas, the view proved to be useful for I did not have to travel that route again to look out for the signs while driving. And I proved myself correct that the speed limit was 70km/hr. So, WAIVER OF SUMMON HERE I COME!


Next,



Phew! My video!

The first video I painstakingly made!

The experience was horrible because I am not a very tech savvy person. Especially when I’m not using my own laptop (because my LCD cracked). I am so not used to using this laptop!

Anyway! I think the processor of this laptop is slow, hence, it took me quite a while to upload the video into the movie maker program.

Firstly, I had trouble finding a video since this is not my laptop.

Then, after I chosen some clips from my trip to LA Disneyland in 2008, I had to wait for it to upload into the movie maker program as mentioned.

Thereafter, I had trouble finding out how to insert the slides for my captions.

Finally, I’ve gotten it done!

PHEW!!!
Overall, not a very good experience. Hence I concluded that I would not make any more videos again unless required. Sorry!

*Pardon the missing video. I am still having trouble to upload it after weeks of trying.
P/s: I SWEAR I did a video. So sorry you are not able to view the video of my trip in LA Disneyland in 2008. :(
