My favourite piece of technology

I think my piece of technology that I like most is the iPod.

My iPod I bought it from a fellow of my old college career just over three years.

One of the things that I like the iPod is its sound quality is very good! Another thing I like is that I can not only listen to music, I can also watch music videos or movies, view photos, listen to podcasts and other features.

There are several versions of the iPod, the one I have is the iPod Classic 160Gb and I think the latter is one of the spectacular things you have, 160GB to store all the music you want so you can listen any music I want besides, the memory also serves as external hard drive.

Being from another region, I used to accompany the long trips and so are not as boring.

I think life is about playing music, so I always

carry with me the iPod.

Yo Opino!

3. What is your opinion about the Chilean politicians? 

I think that the Chilean polticians do not meet the expectations you expect of them, are dedicated to making the poor "policy push". It seems that legislate only for a few. It's as if they realized the real needs of the country.

5. What is your opinion about the Chilean tradition called 'mechoneo'?

I think it's a tradition that is not necessary, but still think it's a fun experience to meet the other students and have a good and "bad" moment, therefore no one is forced even if this appears.

7. What is your opinion about legalizing marijuana?

I think it should be legalized but strictly regulated by the state, as you run the danger of abusing this. A clear example of this type of regulation occurs in Uruguay where the state regulates everything and so you fight traffic.

4. What is your opinion about violence on television?

My opinion on violence on TV is that I believe such programs unnecessary. In the TV needed more culture programs, but lamentably this progrmas no attention, no "sell"...the money rules. =( 

10. What is your opinion about recycling?

We should all recycle, we should all stieve to care for our planet, our home. Recycling is a good thing because we can save, clean, stop destroying ecosystem, etc. If we recycle, the next generations will thank.
