There's already a lot of touch screen technology in the world but I don't think there's anything as good as this.  This technology will make it easier to create ideas on a touch screen in front of you, and then send it to your phone, and then send it to another person's phone by just holding them close together and sliding it over.  Creating ideas on the screen will be a lot easier this way along with sending it to coworkers.

SAP Distribution Game

My team actually came in last in the Distribution game.  Our goal was to make the most sales, so we were lowering the prices a lot so people would buy our products.  The problem was that we eventually had our prices below the cost it was to make the products so we were spending more than we were making.  In the end our products sold out because everyone wanted to buy products for cheap, which was what we were offering.  So while we made a lot of sales we didn't make profit because our product cost more to produce than what we sold it for.  In the final round of the game we completely switched our strategy and chose to start with prices high and gradually lower them until the products were selling.  We found that this wasn't a good strategy either because since our prices started out so high no one wanted to buy our products, so we made very little sales but with a high price.  I think prices are the most important to look at when selling a product because you have to find the in between price that isn't so high that no one will buy your product, but not so low that you completely run out and lose money by having your product being sold for less than what it cost.  The sales strategy is also very important because if you don't have a strategy you don't have a good way of selling your product.  Our team needed to find a good in between price to start out with so we could make a profit.  I think I definitely learned that a good strategy would be most effective in selling a product along with good communication.

Employer's Rights

I always thought that employers shouldn't snoop around their employees' facebooks, but after reading this article I found that there can be exceptions.  Apple clearly stated that that they have rules against saying negative comments about their company so they don't get a bad reputation.  I think if a company clearly says not to put their company down in social media, then you shouldn't.  I agree with their decision on firing the employee, but for other companies that don't clearly say not to bad mouth their company shouldn't be looking all over the internet to find out who is.
