Nothing Escapes the Internet

The quote, “Once it’s on the Internet, it’s there forever!”, this could mean many different things to many different people. To me, this quote means that anything you post on the internet sticks forever. No matter how much you think that you deleted it, its still there. People now have the ability to screenshot, so whatever you post can be screen shotted and kept forever! The ways to prevent this is to not post anything on the internet that you don't want everyone in the world to see. Never post your address or personal information! That is the worst mistake anyone can make because people can get your personal information and stalk you. Always remember, after you post it, its there forever!

iPhone 6 Plus

Some people enjoy the iPhone 6 Plus and some people hate it, but isn't it like that about every new phone invented? The iPhone 6 plus uses a lot more data than any of the other Apple products. The problem with the more data used, is that the bill could be a lot higher. People with pre-paid plans are good to go though because they have a stable amount every month. Most people enjoy the iPhone 6 plus because it gives you a way bigger screen to look at videos and picture on. I think I am ready to get my iPhone 6 plus! Technology is doing big things!

Unsafe Passwords

It is very important that you do not use the same password for everything. Using the same password could make it very easy for someone to hack into your accounts. Once they figure out the first password they know how to access all your other accounts. Never use a birthday, and partners' name or an address as a password, they are all easy to guess. Never share your passwords with other people because even your closest friends can hack into your information or give your information to someone else. Always be safe at choosing your passwords for anything on social media.

Teens use spreadsheets too!

Often managers, business owners or teachers use spreadsheets, but really, spreadsheets can be used by anyone! Even teenagers! Although, teenagers may not be able to use spreadsheets as well as everyone else, teens can use them for some reasons. One way a spreadsheet could be used by a teen is by keeping track of money. Maybe they get a check every month and need to keep track of it. Or maybe, they need to keep track of how much money they can spend on a certain object depending on how much money they have. Teens can also use spreadsheets in class. Maybe in science they have to make a chart of some data they recorded, spreadsheets would make that simple. And lastly, another way teens can use spreadsheets is by keeping up with everything they do. They can type down everything they do that day and throughout the week to keep track of everything. So spreadsheets can be used for everyone.

Cyberbullying Tips

If I had a friend that was being cyberbullied, I would try my best to be there for them. If my friend was the one being bullied, I would tell them to ignore what all the bullies are saying because they are all not true. If the bullies still kept getting to my friend, I would help my friend tell them to stop. If that only made things worse I would help my friend tell her parents or any other adults that could help. If the bullying keeps occurring I would help my friend seek other attention by adults that could help.

Technology Communication

In today's society technology is the big thing. Everyone seems to have at least one technological device in their house. Technology is the one thing everyone turns to, to communicate with friends and family. Communication is the main thing that technology is used for. In the older days people either went to the persons house they wanted to talk to or they wrote a letter to them. I do agree that technology is ruining peoples writing skills because no one writes much anymore because they just type it out on their device and then their done. Sooner or later people in school are also not even going to be writing anymore. We need to start writing more before we forget how to.

Cyber Security Awareness Month

I feel that cyber security is a big thing. Many people are not being secure enough about the things they post and the things they type into the computer. Once you say something it is out there forever. The article I read is about cyber security and how to be secure on the internet. Always stop, think, then connect when logging onto the internet. Think of all of the cautions you are entering. Always look at the wifi connection you are connected to, to make sure its not a hackers. Don't always trust a "business" page. Some hackers act as if they are a business page to get accurate information from people. It's not good to trust everyone! Stay safe as much as possible! October is Cyber Security Awareness month!
