Week 3, Assignment 7

Miss Darla Has the Power of Chuck, originally uploaded by ata4ya.

For SRP 2007, we did a Subversive Sewing class. The teens "helped" me create this fabulous Chuck Norris t. I just had to macro it.

BTW, if there are any Doctor Who fans out there, there is a macro community on LiveJournal called "I Can Haz a Tardis". I think that's the name. If you can't find it let me know and I'll double check the name of the community.

It's What's For Breakfast!

Online Safety

The truth is your information is out there and if someone is internet savvy, they can find it. I've been on the internet since the days of BBS (Bulletin Board Systems) and even I'm shocked that I've let information slip.



For example, Google your home phone number. If you have a land line, you are probably going to find your address, a Google map to your house, and even a nice photo. The good news is that you can contact Google to have it removed. They removed my information within 24 hours.



The bad news is nothing ever really disappears from the internet. In fact, there is a movement toward internet archiving. Check out http://www.archive.org/index.php. Ever had a website that you loved, but it went belly up? If you still have the URL, you might be able to find it here.



I know this sounds dirty but I think it's a good idea to google yourself everyone once in a while.
