Okay, so I really should be writing lesson plans, so I can bless you all with great wisdom and knowledge this upcoming week, but I've gotten a little sidetracked for now.
Cruising around myspace.com, I found a heap of you and see that too many of you haven't made your profiles private. Have we learned nothing about Internet safety? Hello!
If having your English teacher hunt you down and find you doesn't scare you into keeping your profiles private, then I can't imagine what will.
I'll try not to nag you all too much; after all, it is your personal business (that you put out there for public viewing), but some of the stuff you guys put on your sites is scary! What's with the gang garbage and foul words?
I know, I know . . . I should butt out. It's your time and your life to do with what you want, but you've got too many smarts and too much education under your belt to go to waste, so here's my loving reminder that you might conduct yourselves with greater dignity (or at least remember smart Net rules):
If you don't want a future employer (or your grandmother!) to see or read your wild side, then don't put it on the Web. Your choices of words, pictures and videos are reflections of you, so be sure you can be proud of what you see in the mirror. (Okay. The lecture is over!)
