Task

Task  Your task today involves looking at different kinds of databases; applications and sites we would not normally recognise as a traditional database.

Depending on what system you're using (PC [Windows] or Mac), **//individually//** or in **//partners//** you are to compare the following two databases:
 * Windows || Mac ||
 * * Google Maps or Google Earth vs Windows Media Player || * Google Maps or Google Earth vs iTunes ||

Answer the following questions:
 * In what ways are the two different databases similar? (Refer to elements and characteristics)
 * Do they deal with the data differently? (eg: the way it's sorted, formatted, displayed, analysed). If so how?
 * Relationships are a key way of linking data in any database? Can you identify any relationships between data in either of the databases. If so, a) what data is related, b) what kind of relationship is it eg: one to one, one to many? justify your answers with explanation
 * __**Extension:**__ Within at least one of the two databases you are looking at there is some kind of analysis at work; a "query" like structure or feature used to increase user interaction and experience by tracking or relating information within the database. See if you can work out what it is and how it operates based on your knowledge of the data.

Present your findings that incorporates ALL  answers to the above questions (extension optional) in the form of:
