Privacy Issues

I was reading a post on slashdot.com which talked about the privacy issues that Google is getting into. They already keep track of where you go in order to help personalize searches for you. Now they want to acquire Doubleclick.com which tracks where people go on the internet. The issue is that people sometimes don't want to be tracked when they are perusing the internet. I feel that Google at some point will have to deal with these issues but i dont see that happening for a couple of years.

Revenge of the Sith Wiki update

I edited the Star Wars revenge of the Sith page regarding some wording that i thought could be improved regarding the plot. This time my edit was not deleted so I believe that they thought my changes were for the best. Once again my edit name is kawrestler8 on wiki so check out my edits if you have time.

Usual Suspects Wiki update

I also edited the Usual Suspects wiki on the 9th and waited to post to see how the community reacted. I added some information towards the plot of the movie and the community seemed to like it as it has not been deleted yet. One more edit to go for this article.

metallica wiki update

I edited the metallica wikipedia article on the 9th of May and decided to wait to see what happened then blog about it. I put some songs in the article that we only listed in tables on the side of the page so that the reader could identify the album with the songs. My edit was removed shortly after saying it was unneeded.

WIki Edit

After running way behind on class work, finishing paper after paper and presentation after presentation i realized how behind i was on my wikipedia edits. So i decided to get my first one for Emperor's New Groove done so that i could be done with my edits before finals week is over. I edited the movie description a little stating that there is adult as well as child humor in the movie which makes it enjoyable for the parent to watch with the child. Check out the edit at the above link.

In class we were given an article about how Virginia Tech students were using blogs and myspace to communicate with loved ones and tell them that they were ok after the tragic shooting. After reading the article it reminded me of an announcement that was put on facebook that asked for all Virginia Tech students to update their status to let their friends know they were alright. This is just another way that students were able to use this new technology to let their friends and family know that they are ok.
