When you surf the internet, you actually leave footprints behind you. I would relate this assignment to science class. The carbon footprint. Every one of us has carbon footprint in this ‘EARTH’. Now, we know that we actually leave footprints every time you sign up for something. Not carbon footprint, but your identity footprint. Most of us uses facebook, twitter, my space, and youtube, all of these sites needs our identity. They would ask what our name was, our age, e-mail accounts.

From my own experience, I was surprise when I Google myself and my twitter page showed up. All I know was having these ‘applications’ is cool and it’s a cool way to communicate with my friends. You might be surprise to find yourself in lots of pages on the internet. Try ‘Google-ing’ yourself, you might not be aware about this ‘identity thing’, re-set your privacy settings. It’s a free advice, take it or leave it
