Just remember, Internet makes world without space, whatever we want we can get from it easier, include in Learning English from Blogging.

Everyone can share their ideas in their blog. This is one of the ways to promote what we want to show. Many people outside have ability in English and of course they want to share their knowledge to others. With Blogging, we can make something which is needed by many people. For example, I interest in IT and I want to make a blog which is containing of Technology information in English then I start to post it into my blog.

From this, I can learn more about English from others Blogger in all over the world
5. Make student learning English writing process
Well, what will you do with your blog? Of course for write something. Maybe this is a simple thing but it is good in training our writing process. Unbelievable, when we write some article in English daily, we will have more skill in writing English. This is making student learn writing easier, because they will write whatever they like. To learn writing is better start from write whatever we like. In Blog we can write anything that we want to share to others of course in English. If we have difficulties in writing, we can start to blogging. That will make us better in writing because we are trained to write in English and we will try to write a god one in order to make anyone who look our blog will be satisfied and interest.
I think that’s all of benefit that I have from blogging. From all of the answer the most important are communication and information. Many more of learning English we can get from Blogs. In ways of chatting, comment, posting, blog walking, video,link all of that we can do in Blog. Everything will be easier if we want to try hard in learning English because many media will support us to do it,especially from BLOG.

This is the equipment :

Check the video here

For Explanation :

The researchers showed Skin put can be used to control audio devices, play simple games like Tetris, make phone calls and navigate simple browsing systems.

Lead researcher Chris Harrison from Carnegie Mellon University told the Mail Online: 'This is cutting edge technology and we really are seeing the future here.

'The project is going very well and I think you'll begin to see such interfaces emerge within the next five years.'

The gadget effectively turns your arm into a touchscreen surface by picking up various ultra-low sounds produced when you tap different areas.

Different skin locations are acoustically distinct because of bone density and the filtering effect from soft tissues and joints. The team then used software that matched sound frequencies to specific skin locations.

If the prototype isn't resting on the arm, it uses wireless technology like Bluetooth to transmit the commands to the device being controlled, such as a phone, iPod, or computer.

Writing in a paper for Microsoft Research, Chris Harrison, Desney Tan and Dan Morris, said: 'Our skin has been overlooked as an input canvas and is one that happens to always travel with us.

'Furthermore, proprioception - our sense of how our body is configured in three-dimensional space - allows us to accurately interact with our bodies in an eyes-free manner.

'We can readily flick each of our fingers, touch the tip of our nose, and clap our hands together without visual assistance.'

The sensor picks up two two types of acoustic signals - transverse waves created by the rippling of skin as it's tapped and longitudinal waves that travel through the soft tissue of the arm and excite the bone.

Currently, the acoustic detector can detect five skin locations with an accuracy of 95.5 per cent, which would be high enough for many smartphone applications.

Mr Harrison told the Mail Online: 'We achieved high input accuracy in the lab with about one error in 20 key presses, which is similar to what you might find on an iPhone keyboard.'

Twenty volunteers who have tested the system said they found it easy to navigate. The researchers added that Skinput also works well when the user is walking or running.

There are many potential markets for the device. Mr Harrison said: 'One example is an audio player on your upper arm. Perhaps it has no buttons at all, and only uses the skin as the finger input canvas.

'You could then just tap your fingers to advance to the next song, change the volume, or pause the current song. You wouldn't even need a projector for most of these types of interactions.'

The researchers plan to present their work in April at the Computer-Human Interaction meeting in Atlanta, Georgia.
