Hello!!!!
I want to start off by saying that I think facebook is a great way to communicate with with old and new friends, friends whom live close and far and even for some people to keep in contact with the ones they love, whether it be with a boyfriend, spouse or someone who is fighting in the war. With every new technology that comes out there are going to be pros and cons. I believe that all three of the articles have valid points and are something to consider when you are thinking about joining facebook. Privacy is a huge issue with me and I think everyone would agree. There are extra steps that you have to take when joining any sort of group on the internet, such as setting your profile to private so only the people you want seeing your information and pictures are only allowed, having updated spyware or any virus protecting software, keeping your password to login to facebook only your information and most of all logging off facebook when you are done, not leaving it open for some random person to hack into. As the rules start to change in facebook i do take a minute to think about if i still want to remain a user of it. I don't think I will forever be a user of it,but as of right now I'm happy with the way it is being ran. All of my uses with facebook is just to keep in contact with my friends who live in other states and friends who I rarely get to see. I encourage everyone to become a user as long as you take extra precautions to protect yourself and your personal information. If facebook started charging a fee I don't think that I would remain a user just because I have enough things to pay for and I don't need to add something else to the list.

Future Libraries/ Persuasive Paper Websites!
Hi!
To be totally honest I really don't venture in to libraries very often unless is with my young cousins to get books to read for them. Not that i don't like libraries, I think they are very informational and it gives people a quite and nice place to read or do homework and they have many resources for just about anything and we all know variety is a good thing. I hope that future libraries are all accessible through the internet, though i do know that their is a variety of information from libraries that you can get through the interent. Sometimes the library can be stressful and can almost make you annoyed. Their is a certain way you have to find a book or inofrmation, then you have to walk all through the library to look for it and sometimes after all that you cant find it, so then you have to find someone to help and that can turn into a pain. On the internet you can type it in a finf it. No hassle and it takes less time to find it. It would just be alot easier and faster to go on the nternet to find inforamtion the library has to offer.
Persuasive Paper Topic: Online Shopping better then actaul shopping in person?

I picked all of these websites because they really layed out why online shopping is becoming so popular nowdays. People are so busy with other things that they don't have time to drive all the way to the mall and spend hours browseing and loking for presents and especailly during the Christmas season people don't want to deal with the millions of people who are running around with their heads chopped off. It can also be cheaper to buy online in bulk then individually. They also have lots of sites that are dedicated to online shoppers and coupons.

Internet Of The Future!
Hello!!!!
Technology is always changing from day to day and we take the time to learn and buy the newest software that we hope will change our lives and college experiences. The internet has grown into this wonderful, almost magical piece of information that can tell us about everything and anything. This was not always the case and for some people still today do not think the internet as this magical piece of work. I for one I love the nternet and find something new and useful everyday that i can use in my life or at least make my life a little easier as a college student. It can do so many things that really blow my mind and its hard to think about what the Internet could be in the next five to ten years and even beyond that. In my own opinion i think that the Internet will be even better in the future. I hope that you will be able to talk to the inter net, instead of typing in what you want to see or find, you can just tell it what you want and it will be at your finger tips. Sometimes it takes a little bit to load the information, so I'm hoping for a faster moving internet. I believe the layout will be the same, but just more advanced, more options when you type in your destination. I think that everyone will be using this. The internet is already easy to use, but for some people it just takes a little longer to adapt to things and get to know how they work. There are always going to be things on the internet that people are going to dislike and want to hide from their children, so i hope that the future internet has extra tight blocking abilities. Kids seem to know how to get around computer blocking systems, but maybe the internet could be able to identify someone who is under the age of eighteen. I'm not sure how that would work, but i think it would be a huge plus for parents with kids under that age. Then maybe the parents would be more willing to expand their minds and tools of the internet, knowing their children are safe away from harm that awaits them on the internet.

Good and Bad Websites!
Hi!!!
I really love surfing the web when I am bored or trying to catch up on the latest gossip. I think that some websites are more popular because they catch your eye by the way that they are designed. The design of a website is what can either bring in viewers or lose them. if i log on to a site and its not attractive and fun to look at i tend to lose interest faster then if it was well designed and fun. I know the information is the most important to look at, but we eat with our eyes first. The two websites that i think are very well done and fun to look at is, www.perezhilton.com. His site is a gossip site about celebrities, which i love to keep updated on daily. His website is delicious to look at and the colors just make everything pop. There are so many things to look at other then pictures, there are stories, memorabilia and gossip all day long! He is popular because people love to read about celebrities and things that they are doing and the pictures are the best. Another website that i love to death is, http://www.people.com/ , which is also a website of celebrity pictures and stories. Their website is skillfully created and brings is millions of viewers daily. Another reason why this site is so popular is that they have pictures from the Globes, Emmy's and MTV Music Awards and women love to see what other women are wearing. Two sites that i think are not created very well are, http://www.nick.com/ and www.mathmethods.com because everything is not aligned and the wording is everywhere. You can see that the sites were not thought out, but just slapped together. Your eyes are tired after reading everything that was placed everywhere, but where is should have been.
