Post for Week of 9/29

This week, HON 1515 gets sketchy.
I had a lot of fun digging up dirt on the lovely Ms. Sydney Jones for our class assignment this week. I wished I was able to find as much stuff as some of my other classmates, but I think home address, home phone number, and similar things was quite sufficient. It was really cool to find out that Sydney's dad knows my stepdad and her little brother is good friends with one of my step-cousins. Canton is a pretty small town so I'm not surprised about this at all. Facebook was probably my best tool when I started research, but I was able to find things from a lot of other sources. It made me think about what I put on Facebook and who is able to see it. I put my cell phone number up so that only my friends can see it because it's really nice to be able to find the phone numbers of people with whom I am working in groups. I've been super thankful for that in the past and I'm not taking down my number. Something that is a bit unrelated is my default username. I use the same thing, iamnosamurai, for just about every social networking/email/chat account I create. It's a matter of convenience, though it does make everything I post on the web a little easy to find. I don't care if people see my tumblr or my twitter accounts. It's no big deal, as far as I'm concerned. Anyway, happy creepin'.
