A blog is like an online diary that everyone can read, it’s a way for people to read your thoughts and feelings on certain subjects. I have heard of blogs before when my dad trys to talk about myspace and tells me i better not be blogging. I am very comfortable with computers having built serveral myself and having a vast knowledge of the inner workings and software that runs on top of the hardware. I typically use my computer for downloading content such as movies, tv, music, games, and using my computer to draft; im very interested in drafting. I have a super computer able to do todays most complicated tasks without hassle. I personally do not care much for writing i find it boring and i dont’t care to do it much. Since i don’t like to write i don’t like a specific type of writing except to talk to people such as any typical teenager using myspace. People are concerned about kids safety on the internet because some kids are really stupid and choose to engage with people they don’t even know, look at Dateline NBC:How to catch a predator; where the revered Chris Hanson catches sick petefiles trying to have sexual relations with young children. The internet is not dangerous a place if you know how to navigate correctly the problem is people these days are idiots and click on everything the say causing spyware and viruses to flood their computer not to mention teenage boys looking at pornographic images causing worlds of troubles, not to mention limewire which not only promotes copyright infringement but also spreads more viruses. My peers generally are surfing myspace, downloading things off limewire, and once again surfing virus filled porn sites. I feel no different knowing that I’ll be using blogs in class because its not a new thing to me.
