TVs and Computers Combined?
This article talks about new "Smart TVs" that may be taking over not only the regular TV, but possibly the computer as well. It includes a webcam, a dual-core processor and voice recognition so you dont have to use a remote. The quality of the TV has full HD and 3D capabilities which makes watching TV a whole new experience. This product does not surprise me because even now anyone could watch a movie or TV epesode on a regular computer. It is fairly expenisive, but hey, two for one.

Thoughts about Footprint Presentations
What interested me the most between all the presentations was definitely the new Google privacy policy. If someone has any kind of g-mail, YouTube or Google related account, then they automatically have to watch out what they are searching for on the internet. I know sometimes people are just curious about random things and would probably be embarrassed if another person was monitoring them. As for the rest of the digital footprint "no-nos," it is going to be unbelievably hard for almost anyone who is on the internet to be completely safe. Good luck everyone!

Response to the Digital Footprint Videos
Well, after watching a few of the Digital Footprint videos I am a little scared. Anyone can basically steal anyone's identity. I've been aware that skilled hackers were able to do this before, but now it seems as though it has become easy enough for anyone to do it. As for the content that people are willing to put on the internet (such as Facebook statuses and pictures,) I believe it is entirely up to that person. They know others are going to see it and if they get in trouble, they shouldn't be surprised.
