The other day I was using the laptops in class with my students. They had some extra time and they asked me if I am on Facebook. I explained, yes, but they wouldn’t be able to find me. They were determined to try and I said, if they could find me, I would “friend” them. Suddenly a student said, “Miss, I googled you and see your pictures!” A moment of panic hit me, but knowing that I don’t put up anything embarrassing on the Net, I took a deep breath. They could see some of my picasa photos or profile pics and LinkedIn was the first hitย with my credentials, which is actually a good thing so they can see I’ve got experience and education. Still, I have to say my Internet footprint is a bit on the disturbing side. I’m wondering if I should just accept it or try to ensure my privacy…?
Anyway…I’ve been quiet on here. Busy at work mostly. Busy at home too enjoying life, relaxing and pursuing my writing interests. I need to find more discipline and time to do some things, but for now I have to say I’m just content and happy with how things are. ๐
