Facebook Privacy

Facebook's privacy is becoming more & more public. Just like any other internet website anymore. It's becoming harder to keep things to yourself or even close friends. Luckily, I have made my profile invisible to anyone that I am not friends with on Facebook already. It's easy to change this, just click on privacy settings & change the settings to what you would enjoy more & feel more comfortable with. Be careful though!

Pintrest, Evernote, & Livebinders.

Pintrest, I would use pintrest.com if I were a teacher or maybe a big scrap-booker. It seems really interesting with all the fun pictures people will put up for some creative ideas for anything you need.

Evernote: This is a very useful site to use for school for note taking. Sometimes writing notes just takes too long. I'd rather type it out. I'm sure I'll use evernote.com in my future. Especially since I'm going into my upper-class years.

Livebinders: Livebinders.com is useful if you would have a big project coming up & you need a lot of information in a short amount of time. You just need to type what you want in the search box & it will pull all the information about your subject into one big binder. It's much easier to find your important websites than bookmarking them because they are all one 1 website!

Hope I gave you some helpful information! (:

Weird Stories in my Google Alerts

Bill Isles, 48, was struck by lightening outside of a gas station in Wichita Ks. after just buying a Mega Millions Lottery ticket. He told a paramedic right after the shock, "I had a better chance of being struck by lightening than winning the lottery." And he was right. His chances of getting shocked was 1 out of 700,000 while winning the lottery was 1 in 176 million. What luck?!

A man was busted for stealing $43 off a wall decorated in signed dollar bills in Destin, Florida. Later, he told the cops that he was taking them as souvenirs to his friends back in Michigan.

One heck of a dogfight broke out when a woman started throwing baby pit bulls at her boyfriend in a parking lot. She was arrested for animal abuse & the boyfriend was taken into custody for a possible charge with 3rd degree assault.

New Technology

Today I found in my Google Alerts on technology. They made a tiny TV camera implanted in the electrodes in the brain so that the blind may be able to see again. But this new technology, of course, brought up an ethics argument. Is it right to just hook up a blind person to this new out coming of technology?? We can't test it on animals because that is just inhuman & PEDA would not be very happy about that. I think if someone is up for the test, why not?! It's their personal choice. We are not even sure if this device will cause severe side effects. You never know 'till you try!

Facebook at Work.

Should your future employers be able get on your actual Facebook using your password to see if there is questionable content on there? I think that they have no right to get on your actual Facebook. I realize that they are just trying to see if their employee is a really good person but it does not need to be taking to such an extreme measure to where they can get onto your personal account. I believe that is a complete violation of the American Right of the First Amendment. Facebook is there to share what is going on in your life OUTSIDE of work.

Dear Future Interviewer,

I will not give you my password, so don't ask. Thanks.

Aubrey.
