In president Obama's eyes Snowden is not an american patriot. He says that his leaks have accelerated the reforming of the patriot act. Obama says that these programs were already in reform.  I think that this makes Obama appear to be saying that the programs were in reform so we could have changed them without Americans being made aware. I think Snowden is an American patriot because he saw the government wronging the people and made the people aware of it.

This article is from a first person account of seeing her boss search a potential hire on facebook. This article gives my point of view credibility because it is from the first person account of someone seeing this actually happen.

This journal explores the entire story of privacy and facebook. It talks about all of its uses and the consequences that can come with it. This will help me create a full and in depth digital story. Because of all the information in this journal, I should have no problem creating a digital story that is full of the information I am trying to get out there.

For my digital story I want to illustrate the story of someone that fails to receive a job because of what they have put on the internet. I think this is relative because it has to do with a very prevalent problem and is because of digital media, mainly social media. I want to do this through either several different stills, a movie, or a comic. I am not yet sure which one to do yet, but I want to somehow use visuals to show my story. My story will begin with a person at a party three years before the interview. There they will drink too much and put pictures of themselves doing illegal activities on the internet. Then we will fast forward to the present three years later, where the person will be sitting in a waiting room before going to the interview of their dream job. Then I will show the boss of the company doing a quick google search before the interview and finding the picture. They will then conduct the interview and he will not get the job. I have experience in editing film, but I have never really made a story, filmed, and edited it all together. I may have to use still pictures to form a somewhat live comic book which I have never done, but think would be extremely interesting to try.

For our project we have decided to make a petition against the NSA spying. We have decided to this because it is an important issue in today’s society. To accomplish our goal of getting the petition to congress we have decided to make a wiki that explains what our cause is about. We will get people to visit this site and to sign our petition by posting it on Facebook and twitter and other social networks. This is the best way to form our project because things can be spread on social media than anything else. It allows us to reach people that we would never be able to actually meet in person. People can share the link with parents and friends and family, and from there it can spread faster and faster until we get all the signatures we need. This form of social action project is the best for our cause because of the rapid way it can spread and the amount of people it can reach that we couldn't even imagine.
