That is where encyclopedias came into play. There are a lot of ways in which one would perceive technology and that one thing is mainly due to the fact that there are a ton of other opportunities that we might come across to get the job done. With understanding being a very major part of any system, the need for materials that emphasized on meanings and process descriptions were very important. If there is no proper understanding of what we are learning then the end result is that there is no use in actually learning the context of what we hear. We all understand the fact that information is key to whatever we perceive and understand. This is the sole idea that gave rise to the development of the Microsoft Student with Encarta Premium 2009. Its time, though, has passed, and Microsoft made the right move by pulling the plug.Now as the development of technology improved with mass media storage being a trend in technological development, it paved the way for the design and introduction of software that could hold tremendous amounts of data with ease. In its time, Encarta was a very good product, an affordable encyclopedia at a time when good encyclopedias were excessively expensive. He also told Bishop that it would become "harder and harder" for Encarta to find people willing to buy it. "Clearly it's difficult to sell something in a shrink-wrapped box if something far superior is available for free on the Web," he told Bishop five years ago.
Todd Bishop, in his TechFlash blog, notes that when he interviewed Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales five years ago, Wales in essence said Wikipedia would kill Encarta. People today seek and consume information in considerably different ways than in years past." No mention of the word Wikipedia, but it's pretty clear that Microsoft is admitting that's what killed Encarta, when it says, "the category of traditional encyclopedias and reference material has changed. As part of Microsoft's goal to deliver the most effective and engaging resources for todays consumer, it has made the decision to exit the Encarta business. People today seek and consume information in considerably different ways than in years past.
However, the category of traditional encyclopedias and reference material has changed. Encarta has been a popular product around the world for many years.
