    ¿To see, to watch o to look?
    Los tres verbos reflejan tres conceptos muy distintos. To see hace referencia a la capacidad visual y no es fruto de una acción deliberada. A menudo se usa con can o could: I can see the mountains from my bedroom. Puedo ver las montañas desde mi dormitorio.
    To look at implica una acción deliberada: I saw an old atlas, so I opened it and looked at the maps. Vi un atlas antiguo, así que lo abrí y miré los mapas.
    To watch también se refiere a una acción deliberada, a menudo cuando se tiene un interés especial por lo que ocurre: I watched the planes in the sky with great interest. Miraba los aviones en el cielo con gran interés. Igualmente puede indicar el paso del tiempo (we watched the animals playing for half an hour, durante media hora observamos cómo jugaban los animales), movimiento (they stood there watching the cars drive off into the distance, se quedaron allí de pie viendo cómo se marchaban los coches) o vigilancia (the policemen have been watching this house because they thought we were thieves, los policías estaban vigilando la casa porque pensaban que éramos ladrones).
    Para hablar de películas u obras de teatro usamos to see: Have you seen Hamlet?, ¿Has visto Hamlet? To watch se refiere a la televisión y los deportes en general: I always watch the television in the evening. Siempre veo la televisión por las noches. I like to watch football. Me gusta ver el fútbol. Al hablar de programas o partidos específicos podemos usar tanto to watch como to see: I like to see/watch the news at 9:00. Me gusta ver las noticias a las 9.00. Did you see/watch the match last night?, ¿Viste el partido anoche?

  • 20 iPod

       Lancé en octobre 2001 par la société Apple, l’iPod est un baladeur numérique de musique. Les ventes de l’iPod montent en flèche à compter d’avril 2003, date à laquelle Apple lance sa plateforme de téléchargement de musique iTunes. L’iPod s’impose rapidement comme la référence du marché, et devient un objet culte auprès de toute une génération. Il se décline en plusieurs versions, avec plus ou moins de mémoire et de capacité de stockage, y compris un iPod mini (4 gigaoctets, soit 1.000 chansons), un iPod Photo (avec écran couleur de haute résolution) et un iPod Shuffle (modèle compact à mémoire flash et sans écran). Toutes versions confondues, 10 millions d’iPod sont vendus en trois ans, entre fin 2001 et fin 2004. De nouveaux modèles à des prix plus attractifs sont lancés en 2005 (entre 199 et 449 dollars US selon les modèles). A la même date, iTunes revendique 70% du marché mondial de téléchargement légal de musique. A la fin 2006, on compte 70 millions d’iPod écoulés en cinq ans. En janvier 2007, Apple annonce le lancement prochain du iPhone, un téléphone portable multifonctions comprenant un iPod intégré. En avril 2007, on compte un million d’iPods vendus, avec 10 modèles différents.
