Hola homies!

Read Tuesday. Blog Thursday. Wednesday Edit: Pick a number in one of the two above articles and tell us which one and why it surprised you.
Example: I'm choosing the exhibitor number from the second article. It surprised me because I don't even know where you could physically put 3200 vendors!

From the first link: the fact that 95.6 percent of photos taken at CES '14 were posted to Instagram. I actually expected Twitter or Facebook to have most or at least some people posting like crazy.
-Oliver, 1st period
The fact that 95.6% of pictures taken were uploaded to Instagram is surprising to me. I definitely would have expected it to be the majority, but I really expected there to be more Twitter photos taken at an event such as CES.
Culpepper, 1st Period
I cannot believe that this event reached 2.88 Billion people, according to the first link! It's mind blowing.
- McClanahnan, 1st period
I chose the number of people in the world that attended the CES in 2014.It's surprising to know that it's so famous that 40% of the world's population was there. -Barrios,1st period
I think that the hashtags were pretty crazy. I mean 2.88 billion people don't use Twitter and I'm sure that half the people on Twitter don't know what CES is. That means that people had to put #CES a bunch of a times.
Eason, 1st Period :D

The numbers really surprised me. I didn't think that, that many people came to event made for technology. The whole social network conversations was a surprise too! Its cool how theyre using technology to spread the word about technology.
Cameron, 1st prd
From the first link, it surprised me how all social CES conversations estimated to about 85.45% on Twitter. I wouldn't of expected it to be such a popular topic throughout Twitter, therefore, I was very much astonished by this.
-Heyn, 1st period
I chose the number of people that decided to goto the CES its amazing that something about technology is so popular that 40% of the world's population was there
Natepoleon , 2nd period
International CES attendance in 2012 set a record of 156,153! That's a lot of people for a convention! This was surprising to me!

I thought that it pretty crazy that 95.6% of the 17,179 pictures are put on Instagram!! And that only 4.4% of the pictures are put on twitter and Facebook combined!
-Irwin, 2nd period
I can't believe that twitter has 84% of the social media conversations. I would think facebook would have more .
Johnson, 2nd
The 2nd link surprised me simply from the massive attendance of the event... Can you imagine 150,000+ people at one place at the same time?!?
Slide, 2nd period
http://www.cepro.com/article/ces_2014_attendance_tops_150000/
I chose this article because it gives me more info in words and it surprises me that they were able to fit a third of the world population in there and how many important figures not just from the US but from other parts of the world were there.
Torres Per 2
I like how the hashtag thing reached over 40% of the worlds population. That just shows how many people frequently still use that trend. #CES2014 <--
~Lopez, 3rd period
In the first link it claimed that CEA has reached over "40% of the worlds population" who knew technology was so awesome, and could get the attention of so many people.
Delagarza, 2nd Period.
256,782 people went to CES on Tuesday and that is a lot of people at one event. But most people(95.6%) posted images and mentioned CES over instagram. I did expect twitter or facebook to take over but apparently instagram is the new greatest thing.
What I can't believe is how much percent of the pictures from CES were sent to instagram. That is crazy there were so many hashtags about CES because of all the pictures that went to instagram instead of twitter and facebook. Instagram has became so much popular for pictures now.
Jones 2nd period
im choosing the number of professionals not from the US that attended which is 35,000. that is a lot of people considering their not even from the US!

I did expect twitter or facebook to take over but apparently instagram is the new greatest thing.(Kade 2nd Period) P.S-that last one was mine but I forgot to put my name.
From the first link, it kind of surprised me that only .7% of the people uploaded pictures to Facebook. I was expecting more than that.
Laronda Steadham, 2nd Period
The One that's mindblowing to me is the fact that instagram pictures are uploaded more than 95% of the whole world which is freaking Cray

Jacorey winn , 2nd period
I'm choosing the #CES2014 by the Numbers. I love messing around with different and interesting gadgets and this event has a number of them.
-Coen, 2nd
From the second link: I think its crazy how many people attended the CES in 2013 like 152,758 people like oh my gosh! I had no clue it was this popular.
Hill 2nd period
I would of never thought their we be that many people to attend the ces! Its just really shocking to me! the end of first one commented
Hill 2nd period
95.6% of pictures of CES uploaded on... Instagram?? Uhm, people still use instagram? I thought mainly Facebook would receive all the pictures.
-Zach 7th
I chose the number of people because it really impressive how many people were at one place that day 40% of the worlds population that is pretty crazy.

2.88 Billion is the number that got me from the first article because that is basically 40% of the world who hashtaged CES.
-Cano 7th
What really surprised me that the majority (95.6 percent) of photos were mainly posted through Instagram. I really expected that Facebook or even twitter to be more or near to instagram posting a bunch of photos about the CES.
-Ibanez, 7th period
I am choosing the second link: "The Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) has announced 2014 International CES was the largest show in history, with a record two million net square feet of exhibit space housing more than 3,200 exhibitors." This is actually a lot of space, I wonder how everyone fit in there all at once.
I think that it is a crazy amount of people that go to CES and how many people post about it so I would love to go now because I would want to see how many people are actually there and to see the newest tech
-devon 7th period
I'm surprised that 2.88 billion people saw only 256,021 hashtag mentions it's crazy how many people are one social media sites. that means 10,000 people saw each hashtag! that is crazy
From the first link, the fact that 40% of the earth's population used the sign #CES2014 surprised me the most. That means that almost half of the world was busy sharing and posting stuff to their social media sites like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. There are 7 billion people in the world so 40% of that is about 2,800,000 billion people posting thinmgs about CES 2014!
Your Favorite Mexican, 7th Pd. (~^_^)
The second link says that 1/3 of the world's population interacted with CES. That's a lot of people.

How Just How Can It Fit 40% Like I Mean Can It Fit More Or What?? And Almost 700,000 Mentions And Keep In Mind Most And I Mean Most Photos Was From Instagram

-Wright, 7th
I would really expected there to be more photos taken at CES and posted to instagram. The fact that 95.6% of pictures taken and were uploaded to Instagram which is Twitter,it made me surprising.
Wah,7th period
I'm choosing the attendance number from the second article. It surprised me because the building has to be at least the size of Michael Jordan's mansion or bigger to fit more than 150000 people plus 35000 from outside the US.
Macon- 7th
From the first link we can see that the event of CES 2014 reached approximately 40% of the worlds population which is equal to 2.88 billion people. I really thought Facebook was going to have more pictures uploaded than Instagram, but I was wrong.
Venegas, 7th
I chose the 2nd link "CES 2014 attendance tops", It surprised me because, The CEA says more than 150,000 industry professionals attended the show, including more than 35,000 from outside the United States. Now tell me, that is tooo much?

Garcia, 7th
That last year's attendance was 152,758. The reason this surprises me is that the biggest convention I seen had only 50,000 people in it. That was a lot of people around everywhere. Now 3x times that amount...WOW Fur Reals.
-Roland G 7th Period
I picked the hash tags ! that is a lot of people just from twitter that attends it . 40% of the world attend the Ces2014
What I could not believe is that there were around 156,000 people in attendance at CES. That is crazy. Another thing was that almost 96 percent of pictures uploaded to social networks are to Instagram. It has grown pretty popular.
I Think That The Amount Of people Who Attend , 1/3 Of The World ! That's A lot !'

-Taylor 8th
The fact that 40% of the world's population saw the #CES2014 hashtag got was really surprising to me. I definitely wouldn't have guessed that so many people were talking about this on social media, especially instagram! Geez.

I guess the fact that there was a net 2 million square feet of exhibit space is pretty intense. Just imagining all that space for nerds and tech...
Harley -8th
I thought it was crazy that 150,000 industry professionals attended the show and 35,000 was from united states because that had to be a lot of people to be there and it must of been a lot of inventions to show off to everybody
Ferguson, 8th Period
I can't believe the attendance record on the second article. I wonder if the attendance of this year's CEA will be high than 2012's record.
Gipson,8th Period
I cant believe that 40% of the worlds population mentioned #CES2014 in Facebook, twitter and Instagram that is so much people that are really into technology and they uploaded 17,179 pictures that a lot of pictures with there own technology in a technology event
-Castro 8th period (~^_^~.)
What number surprised me the most? It is present in both links, sitting there so innocently. Most people glance over it without noticing, without taking a second to think about what it means. I am talking about, of course, 2014.
As we know, our current counting of dates begins roughly around the birth of Jesus Christ. Since then, two-thousand and fourteen years have passed. Two thousand and fourteen! This is an incredibly large number, when you consider all that has happened since then. Empires have risen and fallen, technology has advanced from metal hammers to computers and calculators, and human rights have taken leaps and bounds towards equality in the Western World. And all this-- all two-thousand and fourteen years-- represent only a tiny chunk of human history, and an almost unnoticeable speck on the history of the Earth. Consider that for a moment. We have come so very far in a very small amount of time, and to me, this is rather exciting and surprising. Who would have guessed our silly little human race could do so much in such little time?
Kwiatkowski, Eighth
I was surprised that they had two million square feet of exhibit space that's just a little bit under the size of 40 foot ball fields. that's incredible.

From Digital Dialogue, it really surprised me that 3D printing made the top 5 Trends and Popular products. It mainly surprised me because my friend has a 3D printer and makes and sells all kinds if little things. (He is 100% against printing clothes because we teased him too much about making clothes for his girlfriend).
Carrasco 8th prd
From the second link: the fact that more than 150,000 industry professionals attended the show and 35,000 of them were from outside the United States. I am surprised because I didn't know that people came to U.S for such an event.

I chose the first link because I thought it was very interesting on how many people ACTUALLY show up and are a part of such a large technology group. Surprisingly, 95.6% of the photos that were taken and posted were uploaded to Instagram. Not Facebook, not Twitter, not even Snapchat. Another interesting fact is that 40% of the world's population went there in those selected days... Wow. Just Wow.
