PSN


Come on Sony get your systems working right.  Does anyone else play playstation 3?  Over two weeks ago Sony shutdown the playstation network because it was hacked.  Saying that it would only take about one or two days to get back up we still wait.
Many people are very mad at the fact that Sony keeps saying one thing and not holding up on what they say.  After the two days Sony said it would be a week.  Well a week past and people were still waiting.  Then they said it would be back on May 3rd...nothing then may 5th and once again nothing.  Now the timetable is somewhere between May 11th and 3-6 weeks from now....  Anyone else thinks this if absurd???

LA Sadness


What happened to the Lakers in their series?  I mean a sweet from the Mavs and on top of the Lamar Odem and Andrew Bynum get tossed from the game in a matter of a minuet.  Come on La it looks like you just quit on the best coach ever in the history of the NBA Phil Jackson.  If i was Jackson I would be embarrassed on how the team played in my last coaching game.
Now what will happen?? The Lakers just quit on Phil and quit on the city of Los Angeles.  I would hate to be a laker fan right now because the way they treated the Mavs and then the way they "fought" for Phil in this series.  What do you think is right for the Lakers now.

Favorite Topic



My favorite topic question was how the internet or web changed over the past ten years.  The reason for that was because it really made me think about how things have really changed of over the past ten years or more.  It made me realize that yes things have changed but it also has shown me that some things are better.  However there is another reason that the net or web made me think.  
With the way that the web has changed it has proven that there is more information then we can handle or know.  It has helped me recognize that there is more out there then just the three or four items that I tend to look up.  The web is part of technology and as technology grows the web will grow.  Only time will tell what is next.

Pick Number 254


Whats the deal with the final pick in the NFL draft being called Mr. Irrelevant? All I really know is that they have a party for the last pick of the draft and not one for the first pick...  It started in 1976 and ever since then the very last pick every year has been named Mr. Irrelevant.  Is that fair to the guy who gets drafted last?
This year Cheta Ozougwu is Mr. Irrelevant.  From my understanding he is a hard working DE from Rice University.  Will he hake the Texans?  Most likely not but still he will have the title of that for the rest of his life.  I am sure no one wants that title bestowed on them no matter what.

Rights to Privacy 2

Internet and Technology has affected the way privacy has evolved.  There are different ways to understand the way that privacy has been evolved.  However there are ways that technology has changed that still wont protect our privacy.  Every day more and more people are loosing their privacy because of hackers and problems with network.
A week ago the playstation network went down.  As of yesterday they admitted that people's privacy has been hacked and stolen.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/26/sony-playstation-network-down-ps3_n_853695.html  lists what has happened.  With all this happening it is clear that our privacy is not safe.

Rights to Privacy


I feel like it is important for individuals to have rights of privacy.  Without it there would be no way to keep anything we want safe.  With our own right of privacy we are able to block things we want to be kept a secret.  Privacy is used to keep things secret from public knowable.  
With all that we use it is helpful to keep things private.  Without our privacy where would we be?  To me we would be nowhere but back in the stone ages.  Privacy is main to everyone and should continue to be accepted and promised to all.

    Change


    What would I change about copyright law if I could.  Well first I would let people have one free download of a movie or music or anything like that.  Then I would start to charge a feel to download something like Apple.  Only difference is that everything would be .99 cents.  Then monitor who downloads what.
    With that being said I know it will be hard to track what is downloaded and by who.  There could be a small tag added to each clip downloaded so it can be tracked.  The tag could be tracked to see if it is on multi platforms or what.  With that you can see how it is used.
