Digital Organization

Digital organization to me is keeping all your online things organized and together.

Article Reflection

The article is about how to use social media in a positive way. You should think before you post a picture or tweet something. There is someone always watching you and employers are also looking. You should lay off the cursing and use it for the right reasons. Don't feed into the negativity and be positive when others try to put you down. I agree with this article. Nothing is truly private. If someone wanted to find something out about you they could. The main point is to be careful and have social media smarts.

    You can use RSS feeds to do a lot of things like to keep all your sites in one place. 
How likely are you to continue to use RSS feeds in the future?

•  Inside are a variety of motion sensors, including a nine-axis accelerometer, plus two Cortex M3 processors.

Favorite Resturant

My favorite restaurant is the International Buffet. They are located in Bergenfield NJ. I like to eat at that restaurant because I can eat anything I want or in the mood for.They serve everything and anything you can think of. They have crab legs, chicken, sushi, and many other cultural foods; their menu is endless. My favorite thing to eat when I go there is crab legs, lo mien, chicken fingers, and fries. If the International Buffet were to closed down I don't where I would go. Their prices are decent and is not too expensive.
