kristykim on 30 Nov 14When we are browsing online, we do not think about electronic privacy and the personal information our computer leaves. Some may be aware of this, but some are not. Companies and other electronic sites are collecting our private information when we are browsing online. They keep track on the things we buy and things we may search. We need to protect our Internet privacy while surfing the Web and monitor the information our computer sends out. Another option you can do is to control your personal information online and offline.

It is interesting that whenever a new innovation is introduced, the current one is declared dead before its final time arrives. Books in whatever format are appealing to different audiences for various reasons. To think that the introduction of e-books was going to lead to a declaration of war on printed books is laughable. Books will be with us for as long as we are still in this world. Does format matter? only time will tell.

Long back Lancaster wrote about paperless society but still we are heavily depending on paper only. Technology has fast evolved. First we talked about e-libraries then virtual libraries and now contemplating cloud based libraries. Many technologies have come and gone but paper is still ubiquitous.

Digital Debut The world knows that your baby is a boy, thanks to Twitter. The Instagrammed ultrasound photo shows him sucking his thumb. Your Facebook post gives his due date as August 28, so he'll either be one of the oldest or youngest in his class when he gets to school - and that's all before he's been born, much less before you start shopping for his first lunch box.
Facebook Scams, Hoaxes, and Malware - 0 views
