Hi, my name is Maxwell Torres.
I'm creating and writing this blog for a Web Technology class. I chose for my topic to educate and inform my fellow classmates (also anybody else who may have happened to stumble upon this) about different dangers and happenings among the internet regarding security and safety.
I'm not exactly sure how well I'll be able to tell those who read this how to protect themselves properly. I basically taught myself how to take the necessary precautions while browsing the cyber world that is the internet. Hopefully by the end of this class, I will have helped people steer away from being just another "absent-minded-click-anything-that-has-an-underline-and-funny-name" end-user, to someone who is conscious idea of what they're looking at. Who tries (key word, right there) to keep a lid on what information they let out. The reader may even who know a few tricks or two about using the internet to have some fun.
I hope we all have fun!
PS - I'll do my best! This is my very first blog, so please, leave constructive criticism if I drop a ball here or there.
