Think Twice!!!!

The Internet is very resourceful for many things such as looking up for information, obtain and search for jobs near you and even to communicate with people around the world or even people that might be across the block. The Internet is used by many teenagers and adults almost every day. Now the popular ways that people communicate is by Myspace, Twitter, Face Book, Yahoo, etc. But many people nowadays use these site to write anonymous comments that sometimes are used to offended people. Or they even do anonymous blogs about people and those people might not even know.

I know people who actually do something like it. When I was in 8th grade, two of my friends (Joshua and Luis) decided to play a prank on our English teacher F.Y.I. she was Russian. They had created her a myspace, the myspace had a picture of her and around her said " I Love Poetry". When they told me about it and they showed me the page I thought it was pretty funny. But those laughs didn't last.

My guess is that a student told her about the supposedly myspace that she had and she told the principal. Weeks later the principal called them both out and suspended them for almost about 3 weeks. This sucked for them because we all thought it was hilarious but we never stopped to think about the consequences.

So if you think that only because you do an anonymous blog, that doesn't mean they cant discover who you are. So actually its not anonymous at all. So before you do something Think Twice!!!!
