Historical Time Capsule Assignment

If i was putting stuff in a time capsule based on the events that happened during the calendar year of 2011. I would include something such as: A Blackberry the reason why i choose that was because they had numerous  issues with there phones in 2011, especially with one of the biggest features of the blackberry which is the Blackberry Messaging (BBM)

Now for a product that was in the headlines for a good reason in the calendar year of 2011. I would include stuff such as: Android In 2011 the have went from being everyones 3rd choice of phones behind Apple and Blackberry to being some peoples first choice. If they continue to have another good year like 2011 they will be the mobile powerhouse.

Best business of the year

I think that the Royal Bank of Canada was one of the top businesses of 2011. The reason why i think that they are one of the top businesses is due to the fact that they made 5.2 million dollars in profit which is a 35% increase from the year before and for their revenue their total assets are 726.2 million dollars they have the most employees working for their company in all of Canada with a total of 72,126 people. I think that if they had the most profit and they had the highest amount of assets I feel that it should be a good reason for them to be mentioned as the best business of the year.

A company i'd like to thank Revised

I want to thank Apple for creating the Iphone because without it i wouldn't have a phone that is as fun to use as it is, On the Iphone you can play games, text, call, and be on the internet all off of one device. Where as most phones you have to pay crazy fee's for the internet where as the iphone you pay for a data plan and you have free internet as long as you are in a wifi zone. And the calling is much better then if you were on a normal cellular device. The only problem with the Iphone is that the battery dies fast if you are in your texting,calling or playing a game for a long period of time.

Product War Opening Activity

Coke Versus Pepsi Product War

Coke
500 Different Brands of Coke.
Invented 1886.
Sell 1.7 Billion soft drinks a day in 2011.
When it was first invented they were only selling 9 drinks a day 1886.

Pepsi 
19 Different Brands of Pepsi 2011
Pepsi became a drink in 1961
Sells less soft drinks then Coke in 2011
Originally named Brad's Drink in 1903

I think Coke is better because they out sell Pepsi and have been around for a longer period of time then Pepsi has by 75 years. I like the taste of Coke better then Pepsi as well. Pepsi has always Marketed itself on it's similar taste to Coke where as Coke has worked hard to go from selling 9 drinks a day in 1886 to selling 1.7 billion drinks a day in 2011.
