hi :) =Topic 1: Blogging= =Activity 2, Number 4 and 4A= __Video: Blogging__ By the 21st century news became not only professtional but personal by blogs. Blogs allowed anyone to be a reporter about their own type of news. Anyone with an idea can start a blog and post stories that are relivant to them and publish them. Blogs also allow news to be a two-way street and are even a community.

__Video: post to be privite__ Even when settings on a social network page are privite they are not hidden from everyone. people on your friends list can see the things you post even with privicy settings.if you post things that specify your location you can have unwanted people show up where you are and for that reason you should only add people that you know in person.

__Video: social networking__ Teens have profiles to chat with ftriends, keep in touch with old freinds, and post pictures. You are not guranteed to know the person behind the computer is who they say they are so before adding someone make sure you know them. When posting personal information or photos and things people especialy in the work place judge you and could decide not to hire you just because of what you post.

__Video: Protecting online reputations__ I learned that you really have to pay attention to everything you post not only for you bout for those around you such as friends and family. Search engines scan documents, picture, and videos and save them so even when they are deleted by who ever posted them they can still be found. Evidence of illegal things can be found this way and can cause major problems. Future bosses would not want someone with a bad reputation because that would make them look bad. You can still share your life through technology but make things privite and dont post eveything. =Topic 2: Tale of Two footprints= A tale of two footprints showed me that carelessness can affect a persons reputation in soo many ways. the compariso they made between the fairy tales gives a dynamic understanding to the severity. Things online really never go away and everyone has access to it. If things about you are negitive online others see you in thet light and it ruins your credibility for the future even if you do change and improve yourself. If someone had one bad thing about them online even if they change themselves completely their prints of the past still haunt them.

=**Topic 2 : Are You Already Online/Online Presence**= I do have a digital footprint. My track reacord consist of things from my facebook,formspring,and myspace account. I was suprised to see formspring and myspace because I havent used them in years. I am not very fond of my print because you think these things are personal but they aren't and that makes me uncomforable. There isn't anything incriminating online about me but it definately makes my personal life public.
