WEEK #10DARKSIDE OF THE WEB

The Dark Side of the Web was very interesting. It is giving us information on how we can surf the net safely. By using your passwords and account numbers, you are giving hackers valuable information. This can lead identity theft. The best part of seeing this in writing and listening to the video is, it can be controlled by a popup blocker. This bit of information has really been an eye opener. I know in the future, I will be more careful with my information.

WEEK 7/OCLS AND LIBRARY 2.0

In the video, the person was talking how he made his first Radio Shack mixer. He mentioned Web 2.0 and how it can change the way we can get and exchange information. Technology is getting better and better. The Wii was game related. It also talked about Oralndo Memory,Orange Peel and the Strategic Goal. I think all of these are important to the library. I also think the Music in the library is a really nice touch.

WEEK #5/CHAIN, CHAIN, CHANGE

Change is going to happen in our lives whether we want it or not. Accept it with open arms. In the video, I can see that changes are needed for students. One of the changes is smaller classrooms. I hear from high school and college students that this is one of the biggest problems that they face today. I know technology can help.

WEEK #4/OPEN SOURCE

When you think about it, online is just a way of life. We pay bills and shop. I like Open Office, how it is free and how it can be modified to help your needs.
