AS ICT
Today was my first ICT lesson. I created this blog in order to record my work and share it with other people. Blogs are easy to access and operate therefore I'll be able to use mine almost anywhere, as long as I have internet access. In the lesson we also found out a bit about search engines. We compared 4 different search engines: AskJeeves, Bing, Yahoo and Google. We checked how many results each search engine came up with after typing the same phrase in each one. In turned out that Google is indeed the best and the most reliable search engine.
Statistics
For our first study I had to look at the internet usage in the UK and how it changed over the years. This is the website I used for my study - http://www.ons.gov.uk/ons/index.html.

| Internet Access in the UK/GB from 1998 to 2012 - ons.gov.uk |
In 1998, the internet access in the UK was only 9%. This number fired up in the first couple of years, almost doubling from 1999 to 2000. Since then it has been gradually increasing every year by about 2-5%. At the moment in 2012 the internet access has grown to 80% and based on the pattern it will keep increasing in the future years.
