Internet Safety: Facebook - 1 views

  •  
    LOVE THIS ONE! Great site for parents to know how to keep their kids safe on facebook, and it is kind of a course on how to use facebook and how to access different things on your child's page. I might even need to read them so I know how to use facebook better!

    Is Facebook really harming our brains? This article seems to think so.

    Facebook is making our students more self-centered? I actually lol'd when I read that! I don't think that has anything to do with the reason our students seem more self-centered....

What Parents Should Know about Facebook and MySpace | abc7chicago.com - 0 views

  •  
    This is a video from a news show in Chicago. Good one for parents to watch to see what kids are doing on facebook/myspace and to find out ways to protect them. I liked how the guy in the video said that kids don't just use it for social purposes, but that some of them have homework or school groups to help each other out. Even though that is probably 1% of teenagers it was still nice to see that aspect spoken about.

    This may have been the worst interview I have ever seen, but the content was important. I did like how he gave a plug for academic uses as well.

'Sexting' Teens Can Go Too Far - 1 views

  •  
    This scares the crap out or me. Cell phone cameras have made it so easy for kids to take risque pictures and forward them on. What they don't realize is that once they have sent it out, it is out there for the whole world to see and most of them have not clue how harsh the consequences can be.. Iike the 17 year old in this artlice charged with child pornography after posting pictures of his 16 year old girlfriend online. YIKES!

    Stacy I have to laugh at all your posts, because most of them are against technology use, but I know you do like using technology. That being said this worries me too. Because how far does this go? Kids are not only texting naked pics, but have you ever seen the filth they post on their facebook pages? I have and it disgusts me and worries me. I wonder if boys who have nasty pics of girls could be given child porn charges like this boy who texted them, cause facebook reaches a whole lot more people than just 70 friends on your list or even 2,000 kids in a school.

The Impact of Facebook on Our Students - 0 views

  •  
    This lists some of the concerns and things that would need to happen if Facebook was allowed in schools. I guess there are some school systems that do allow it. I can't even imagine allowing our students to have access to FB during school hours.

For Those Facebook Left Behind| The Committed Sardine - 0 views

  • Why you’d bother: LinkedIn is especially useful when you’re looking for a new job — or a new employee, which helps explain its 70-million-strong global membership — because you’re no longer limited to asking your immediate colleagues for referrals. Now you can ask colleagues of colleagues, which greatly expands your reach. LinkedIners can also vouch for one another as references.

      Am I the only one getting tons of invites for LinkedIn? I wondered what it was!
  • There’s a game element, too: you earn points whenever you check in. In fact, whoever visits a certain place the most becomes its “mayor,” and may be rewarded by a giveaway from that business.
