Topic 1

1) I think the hardest guideline for me to follow/remember will be to consider my audience. I've never run a blog before and don't really plan to continue this one after it is graded (although that might change), so I think I'll be writing more for myself than anyone else, and any readers of my blog may take offense to that. Also, I'm not sure how well I'll respond to criticism, positive or otherwise.

2a) Digital citizenship is when a person makes use of social networking sites or other forms of information-sharing online to engage in social/political/artistic/etc. conversations/projects.

2b) The responsibility of a digital citizen is to use the internet responsibly, to know whether what they're writing is right or wrong. They should exhibit intelligent, thought-out behavior online and make good choices when using technology overall.

3) Hannah Cromwell isn't a very unique name on a worldwide scale, so I got a lot of results on Google when I put in my name. Further attempts to find myself through the addition of keywords like "California," "High School," ect. resulted in some links concerning myself, mainly my Facebook page (which I never use) and my E-mail address. I really don't have all that much of a digital footprint, it seems, and I'm happy to keep it that way.
