Today we started the course by reading other’s blogs, some where really cool with a great disingh, like the yellow duck, and others where kinda not related to what most is writting. I guess they took the no rules thing seriously.
After that Ken told us look some tools to learn more about. In the bening i was looking at the story of the gifs and how a big part was lost due to some galery website going down, but latter Ken show us some cool information about our browsers.
Google chrome as almost every browser is capable of saving your passwords, but this is not the safest way of saving passwords, so you can manage wich passwords chrome saves and wichones don’t. I personally don’t save passwords in my browser, but it is a cool tool to see what is already saved there. You just go to settings then advanced configuration and there is a section of passwords and formularies.
Later thar day we have the video talk with Maha Bali:
we talked about give your face to the internet in photos or videos, in photos you just have to be aware of what are you posting, and in videos as you most likely trying to send a message, you try to make a perfect video, but if it is something spontaneous there is room for mistakes, no problem with that at all, as long as we are confortable with the content we publish.
Maha mention a lot of interesting stuff about our internet presence, she said that having a public presence is important. However, having a private presence is as important, like connecting with your friends privately through facebook or twitter or whatever you use.
We asked some questions and the most interesting thing was how intereactions with people infront of you and people on the internet are different, but they are all human beings, and deserve a certain amount of attention.
