Social Network

I am involved in social networking in many ways. I use Facebook, Myspace, I have a GoodReads account for computer class, I go on Google for information and I use Youtube once and a while I started using Facebook last year and now I use it very often. I've had Myspace for a longer time but I barely use it now, its a little hard to use and nobody uses it anymore. I almost never go to my GoodReads account, i've only used it two times and its not that fun. I only go to Google when teachers give me homework and tell me to investigate something. When I want to watch videos or I have nothing to do I go to Youtube. These are some examples of how i'm involved in social networking.





Social Network can be dangerous. Some examples are preditors like pervs that will ask you many questions and steel you. Besides that, they might try to steel your identity. The only way we can protect ourselves from this is by not putting too much or real information about our identity. Also, to not have too much communication with people you don't know.

Our edudaction needs to change by teaching us how to use technology well and the right way. In addition, they need to teach us how to stay away from predetors and not give out information about ourselves. As you can see, social network can be dangerous and we need to be prepared for a world dominated in social media.

My Blog

At first I didn't understand how this Bloggers thing worked. I found it a little hard and confusing to understand. After a while I got it and tried to make my blog unique and original, although I haven't put too much time on it. I think the only reason I would use my blog is when Mr. Picketts asks us too. Its not that interesting as facebook and theres not mcuh to do on it except put pictures and write new "entradas". Now i'm going to tell you a little bit about me, I don't want to get to broad. I'm 13, I was born in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and i've lived here all my life. I think Vallarta is a fun place and I really enjoy living here. I go to the American School and i've been going to this school for 10 years now. I'm planning on leaving for a year, to take a break from the American School, in 9th or 10th grade. I might go to France to learn how write and read French better, because I can speak it perfectly, or maybe somewhere in the United States or Canada. As I said, I don't want to get too broad so thats all i'm saying. Enjoy my wonderful blog :)
