  • Intern Spotlight: Abbas #2
    05/12/2011 - 18:28

    Interning at UGE for 3 weeks now, my curiosity with blogging has increased as well as the relization that many topics have to do with work and everyday life.  I saw that Microsoft bought Skype and now realize that multi-billion dollar companies show their dominance through investing in smaller, yet still well-known companies.  They gain the aspect of re-introducing their names and further increasing their marketing expansion.  Not only do I use Skype, but I also use Microsoft products including Xbox and Microsoft Office.

  • The car of my dreams: Google's self-driving Prius
    05/06/2011 - 14:59

    Google's new self-driving Prius is a new innovation in technology that would help me in my daily life considerably. Still recovering from my back surgery, walking to the train station in the morning can be painful. However, this type of technology would not only relax me knowing I have a ride to the station, but it would decrease my back pain and allow me to have more energy throughout my day. Google's idea of helping people with technology is one I would undoubtedly support, seeing as this car could be the solution to mine as well as many other individuals' daily inconveniences.

  • Intern Spotlight: Abbas' first few days

    Learning about wind energy has been a curiosity of mine for a few weeks.  Luckily, I was able to get an internship at Urban Green Energy.  Since starting this internship, I have learned about the process of installing wind turbines as well as how beneficial they can be to any consumer interested in purchasing one.  Having no background learning about this industry, I can honestly say I was nervous to start working in a new environment.  However, the employees of this company were open minded and took no time in making me feel comfortable.
