I enjoyed GVRL MUCH MORE then Wikipedia. I feel that as a source to use for information it keeps more more interested in what I am searching for, as Wikipedia bores me. I have never liked Wikipedia, and I have never used GVRL until today, but enjoyed it much much more then any other way of searching for information. I chose the topic Privacy. And became really interested in learning more about the privacy as a prisoner. It is interesting to me what rights they lose when they are in prison, compared to the rights of people outside of prison in the real world.
This project helped me really get a better understanding of the different types of Privacy we have in America. When it comes to doctors confidentiality to our Amendments. It is starting to become more of an issue with the internet and technology progressing, I feel like as the years progress, we lose more and more privacy as individuals. This is a topic that is really going to stick with me, and something to always think about, especially when I have children of my own, and when they create Facebook, or join online gaming, or anything like that. Privacy is a scary topic. But very interesting at the same time.

Hi, Ashely:
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you found such a personal interest in this topic, remember, that makes is easier to research and stick with it, if you have a personal interest. I agree that GVRL is a much better place to start your research and get reliable, credible information and references to continue you search. With social media being all pervasive, it is important to consider personal privacy and how to keep it intact.
Cheers,
Andrea
