10/12 class notes
Database we have tables (fields, records), relationships, forms, queries (asking question) and reports.

Database vs Spreadsheets: Database is metadata - data about data

we have discussed what database is, for example Google, Wikipedia, and even Google Doc.  We can also use database and it's query function to find out answer to our question so that we can make a better decision.  If we can find a way to collect our data, it will help us better to make a decision.

We can also put two databases together, just like on the lds.org you can find a contact info for the ward, and with google map database, it makes easier for us to find other church members location.  And when we put two or more databases together, we call it "mash it up".
