Have you Always Wanted to be Rememberd in the Future?

The article ‘Footprints in a digital age” by Will Richardson presents being Googled, Richardson says being googled id about when someone enters tour name in Google, that it will be less than impressive.

            Richardson gives a good example of being Googled. He says “the story of Laura Stockman, a 10 year-old from Buffalo, New York.” HE goes on to state “in an effort to honor her grandfather, who died a year before, she decided t do one good deed each day in the run-up to Christmas.” Laura wanted to share her work with the world, Laura and her mom decided to create a blog, “Twenty-five days to make a difference” (http://twentyfivedays.wordpress.com). She still shares her work to this day.

            Laura’s blog id a good example of being googled or leaving a footprint in the digital age. As I was reading Richardson’s article I started to realize that I wanted to leave a digital footprint. I don’t want to have to leave a time box in the ground for someone in the future to find. I can just make a profile on Facebook, Myspace, or even Blogger. After I read this I went to go Google and typed in my name I was shocked at what came up. I have leaf a digital footprint have you?
