EVAN TREMBLY..UGHHHHHHHHH

When i first read the alert about this missing child i was very sad and wanted to help this family out. I also thought that this was a very good way to spread the news of their child and make sure everyone is aware of this. It also helps them out by showing everyoen a picture of him so if they see him, they can contact his parents.
But while reading the alert i did find it alittle suspicious because there was no when and where exactly. I also saw taht there was no "." in between the email address and when you try to send something there its doesn't send. When i googled his name it came up as a hoax and this kid wrote this alert to amuse his friends. He also does not live in canada where he said he lived he lives in texas. I think this joke may have seemed funny at first when you didn't really think about the consequences, but now that it has gone around the internet he should feel really stupid and wrong.

The post on the class blog about the links that a website has is the one im responding to. The NYtimes website has many different links on just the first page of it; it is a door of openings to other sites. I think that links are a very important part of websites because they show examples, explanations, and pictures of what your website is about.

Safe Blogging

The first video I watched was about posting different things on the internet that can be seen by everybody. Things like pictures, songs, and even statements can be seen by everybody on the web. My reaction to this is that you really need to think before you post ANYTHING on the web because you don’t know where you’ll see it next!

The second video I read was about how people say things to other people online that hurts the other person, because they don’t think it’s as harmful when it’s not face to face. My reaction to the video was if you don’t think you can come front to front with that person about what you are about to say that its probably meant to don’t be said at all!

The third video was about how you need to make sure anything on the internet that you don’t want public is either private or does not have personal information. My reaction to this video was that I am always going to be think about what I am putting up on the internet and is it safe too, also is it shown to everybody is kept private for only me or my friends to see.

Small world

Everyday I use many different devices that make this world become very small. I use computers when im at home, cellphones when im not at home, and just plain telephones to talk at home too. There is also transportation devices that help us move different things to other places around the world faster. All these differnt devices have made our world a much smaller place.
