Warm Up 3/5 - Respond to "Calvin a Hobbs" Big Data article

Calvin and HobbesSo this morning I am asking you to read an opinion article, and respond in a few pieces.

Start with this article:
What Calvin and Hobbs can Teach us About Big Data

Part 1: Summary and understanding.
I want you to read through, and write an overall summary of what the author is saying.  Remember, this IS an opinion article, so be sure to include facts as well as the authors opinion in the summary.  [You could do this by either reading the entire thing, and going back to write a paragraph summary, or what I think is easier: read one paragraph at a time, and write 1-2 sentences for each as you go]

Part 2: Response with Your Opinion
For the second part, I want you to respond to what you think about this topic.  This is where you write your own opinion, and how you feel about the topic the author has brought up

You won't have the full hour to complete this, so work quickly and efficiently.
Like a well-written program =)
