Week 10 Phishing

I have a friend who has a paypal account. Not that long ago he got an e-mail from Paypal saying some one was trying to use his account and they needed him to update his information and password. I told him not to do that and send a copy of the e-mail to Paypal. They sent him a message back that it was a Phishing scam. It can happen to anyone. Be alert.

Week 9 Life Long Learning

I think it's great that university's are offering online courses. I think that would make it easier to schedule classes and also cut down on the space you need to have a class. Life Hacker and Instructables are two sites I already know about and use. I really like the neat stuff they show how to make. I also like Cnet Digital Home DIY. Another site a coworker old me about is www.snopes.com . It's great site to go find out if news/ rumors are true or not.

Week 8 On the Right Track

Reading this weeks lesson really made me think about Library 2.0 . I believe that our Library is on track with all the cool new things we have to offer and it's great that we can take this course and keep up to date.
