For the past two days, we've been watching The World According to Google which gives us an in-depth look at the beliefs and ideologies of the organization. Google recently made an announcement related to their privacy policy which has literally caused a global stir.
The first part of your assignment is to find three (3) differences between Google's old privacy policy and the policy that becomes effective on March 1, 2012. Next, you will need to find a news article from the past two weeks related to Google's new privacy policy. Lastly, after both summaries are completed, you are to write either a rebuttal or commentary paragraph in response to the article that you read (rebuttal = disagree, commentary = agree).
Add a new post titled "Google" on your personal blog that includes the above summaries and your rebuttal or commentary. Please include a link to the article.

Digital Information
For the past couple of days, we've been discussing digital information, copyright, copyright infringement, fair use, and Creative Commons. In your own words, please answer the following questions:
- Why should we use more than one label or tag to describe the same piece of information?
- Why is Creative Commons licensing an important development for sharing digital information?
- Would you allow others to use your photos?
- What licenses would you apply and why?
