Topic 4: Photos and Images and Giving Credit

It is unbelievable to think about how easy, yet so risky it is to steal someone photos. When people post pictures online, there are multiple ways to protect their work such as copyright, public domain, fair use, and Creative Commons. Each of these are different ways to give people the ability to publish works legally.

Topic 2: Blogging

Some things that I enjoy that I would also like to blog about would be fun things I like to do in my free time, or insight I can give on new and random things I learn throughout the week.
I know that a lot of people blog about their personal lives or post pictures of their children like a virtual diary, simply because there is a button at the top of every blog to browse other blogs and I can't say I don't do that when I'm bored and have nothing to do:) but posting that information can also be very dangerous considering that all types of people can browse blogs as easily as I can. Due to that, I plan on not being to personal on this blog but share things that think I can teach other people.
