What is Cyber Bullying?
Cyber Bullying can have various ways of describing it, but i think we all can agree on one. Cyber bullying is when you are hurting someone through the use of social media. In the article "Audrie Pott, Rehtaeh Parsons suicides show sexual cyber-bulling is "pervasive" and "getting worse," expert says", it talks on how young girls are being victims of rape and also cyber bullying. Besides the emotional and physical damage being done to them by being rape they are also suffer from cyber bullying. Pictures of them from the day they got rape are being post online and past on so fast to everyone they know. This causes an even more depression to them and some have come to commit suicide. Cyber bullying can really hurt someone because without people knowing that they are hurting someone they will comment or share the images,or videos, and the victim feels like no one care, or are making fun of them and for the victims this is a very difficult situation to get out of because you are constantly being a bully and bringing up memory you wish to forget. Cyber bullying can ruin a life of someone to the extent of taking their own life away. This can cause more suffrage to the family members of the victim. So in the end cyber bullying can do some serious harm to the person being the victim and to the family member as well.

Social Media
1. How many social networking sites are you on? If you'd like, list them. Which do you prefer? Why?
The social networks I use are Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and well I use twitter for my CS 101 class. I used to use myspace back when it was the latest thing on the web but then it was sold and completely remodel. In the article "Yahoo Acquires Tumblr, Promises 'Not to Screw It Up" they talk on how yahoo bought trumblr and promise that nothing would change with it, which in my opinion is a good thing because it won't affect the people that use tumblr today. Not like Myspace which was change to the level that people stop using it and almost died out and that's the reason why now I prefer Facebook. Facebook is easy to see what my friends are doing and easy to communicate with friends I don't normally see.
2. What are virtual worlds? How can they be used? What would you like to be in your virtual world?
Virtual worlds are online communities, which user have created to talk to other people and create the environment you wish to create. In the article, "Going to the virtual office in Second Life" they talk on how big companies use it to have conference or meeting with other companies. They sit around using this worlds and instead of going somewhere you can have the meeting in your own house using these virtual world. If I created a virtual world I would like to add an environment in which is peaceful and full of natural.

World Wide Web
What does the future of the World Wide Web look like? What is 'the Cloud'?
What the furure of world wide web will look like according to the article, "Google's New Director of Engineering, Ray Kurzweil, Is Building your 'Cybernetic Friend" is kind of scary but easier in my opinion. It's scary because know whatever you look at research or just search is being recorded. Invading peoples privacy in some way, but I believe it's also going to be a lot easier to search what your interested in because it will automatic know what type of person you are, base on what you have search in the past. This will just help us learn and read what we are interested when presented to us in our computers without having the trouble of searching for it by yourself.
Cloud is when you run a network or a program on many computer at the same time rather than just having to run a network or program on one computer all the time. Back in the reading " cloud computing", they talk on how back in the 80's a person could have installed anything they wanted on their computer and would have to upgrade all the time when new installments were introduce. While being on cloud you get everything installed without you having to worry about it. Every upgrade is up to date and everyone is on the same page.
