One example of how the internet has changed the way we live and think.

This is an article about our privacy on the online world

I think this article shows us how generalized the word "friend" has become

This article is basically saying that relationships are being affected by technology. It brings up the point that if we have 1000 friends on Facebook how many of those friends are we actually keeping in contact with. Another point is that the more time we spend on social networking sites the less time we spend socializing face-to-face.

Sometimes Social networking makes it hard for us to understand who our real friends are. I think most of us are past having an exponential amount of friends but we certainly are obsessed with how we project ourselves on the internet. It's hard for us to maintain relationships or meet people online without questioning the realness of it.

I was on Ayeshah's blog where she posted the following video: A Vision of Students Today It is indeed something to think about. Too Much Information As the video tells us, we 'browse' through so much information, it is almost impossible to keep up.

I think its true that there is too much information on the internet for us to keep up so we end up spending more and more time on the internet. This relates to my topic since my topic is about how technology can be bad for us and some of the problems it causes.

We might think that we are refreshing ourselves, but it is making us more fatigued.

this article talks a lot about the positive impact of technology in the classroom. I think we can all relate considering we are a very tech based class, and therefore we are a lot more interactive.

This article talks about how the internet is rearranging our brains to think in different ways.

This article is about how when Google changed it's privacy rules to target consumers with specific advertisements, people were fighting it. Now that Microsoft has changed their privacy rules to similar ones as Google, people are just letting it happen. I think Google is seen as the bad guy in this situation.

This is a good article. It talks about how we are always on the internet. Is it a drug? This article seems to thing that we are getting too much technology and it is changing the way we act.

I can relate a lot of this article to myself, and my other friends that use technology as often as I do. I think because of technology, our daily lifestyle has been sped up dramatically.

I liked this article because it talks about how we wish for things to be as fast as the internet. As we begin to get addicted to the internet, we get addicted to the speed and its altering our brains.

Alright folks this is a HUGE database of almost every statistic that one can think of. It is really quite fascinating to browse these charts. There are statistics on work injuries, product prices, unemployment figures, maps, stats on how people spend their time and just about everything else. Each stat is broken down into genders, demographics, ect. Massive source for RAW numbers about people.

I thought this article was interesting because it talks about the things that are causing problems on Facebook. My topic is, is technology making us lazy? and I think this article relates because that is one of the problems caused by Facebook.
