More things

Continuing the 23 Things journey & have now arrived at Thing 3. I know right, 2 Things in 1 day! Thing 3 is about the Digital Footprint and one of the tasks is to Google yourself. I have done this before so I assume I have some idea what to expect.

My privacy setting on Facebook are set to the max and I almost always deny permission for apps to access my location, photos, files etc so I may be considered paranoid or perhaps old fashioned. Still, much more stuff than you think shows up when you do a Google search. Including some information that seems to have been gathered from publicly accessible data but put together incorrectly. Perhaps my old fashion-ism isn’t so misplaced!

It’s a big deal for someone who does not particularly enjoy writing to commit to a blog. Once you have a flow, it’s all good, it’s just the getting there. Aside from which, my mind is not on happy blogging activities. My mind is with Cappi who joined other past doggies last Friday.

For purely self-indulgent reasons I will add this photo. There may be more later.

Anyways, on to the reason I am blogging which is because I have started the 23 Things course from Edinburgh Uni to enhance my digital literacy skills.

To be fair, the starting has been a while in the making. I started ‘Thing 1’ in June and it has taken me this long to get on to Thing 2. At least I have managed to validate the email address via an email account I never use so just remembering the password was an achievement. I still have to figure out how to tag the blog as well but will try that in a moment.

Time now to add a pic of the faithful Casper hound still keeping me company! Oh, ok, and another one of Cappi.
