Playstation 4-CNN Tech

Sony has revealed its new PlayStation console. It will have top of the line processors and graphics cards that will be able to support extremely high graphic games, the type that are usually only supported on very high end PCs. There will be a new multiplier system where users can broadcast live video game feeds to friends or upload game play to the PlayStation Network. There is a new controller with touch pad integration and  kinect (For Xbox 360) like hardware to purchase with the console. Sony did not show the actually console at there live event in New York but they may show it at the E3 gaming convention.

Blabberize vs. Voki





Personally I like Blabberize better. You can use any picture you want, not just pre-made ones like Voki. Blabberize was easier to use. Voki did not work on most browsers except Firefox for me. I would definitely use Blabberize again. If i had to present something in another class I could just pre-record it and put it into Blabberize and then have it play for the class. This would work especially well in history class with the historical figure.

Tracking Teresa

This video is about how easy it is to find out information about someone online. In a random chat room there is a user named Teresa01. She gives out a small amount of personal information. she gives out her name and that she likes basketball, music and hanging out with friends. I have put personal information online. i put my name, my age and my location on Facebook. i have put in my name for other things like for profiles on gaming websites and such. The most important thing to remember when using the internet is to not give out personal information to people you don't know. The other video I chose was 2 kinds of stupid. In the video there is a story about a high school athlete. He is a swimmer and gets good grades but he makes a bad decision. he goes to a party after one of his meets and takes pictures of himself with alcohol. He posts them online and gets suspended and kicked off the team. All of this happened to him just by posting those pictures online.

Status Cloud

I was unable to make a status cloud. I have too few post on Facebook.

Digital Footprint

1. I am proud that I have nothing embarrassing on my Facebook page or on my Google search.
2.  I am surprised to see that all of the meets I have swam for high school are on Google.
3. I am not embarrassed about anything.
4. There is not much that I would change to make my digital footprint better, it is good the way it is.

Cyberbully-The Movie


I really enjoyed the movie. It was really truthful and it had a really good plot. This movie was similar to the cases we talked about in class in many ways. It was a case where a teen girl is bullied by multiple people online and the bullying was mostly started by someone creating a fake profile. It is the same in many other cyber bullying cases. The movie was different because ABC Family played the story up a bit to make it more dramatic.  Many things that happened in the movie would not happen in real life.
