One of the concerns that everyone has to deal with is security. Security risks include viruses, worms, and hacking to name a few. Ethical concerns such as; plagiarism and copyright infringements, are a constant issue within and outside the education world.

For this assignment I joined three Social Networks: Classroom 2.0 and Ning Education. I joined Classroom 2.0 after being invited by two classmates.

There are Blogs on every topic I could think of and more. After browsing Blogs on both http://blogcatalog.com and http://globeofblogs.com , I found two Blogs that stood out: "The Educational Optimists" and "Ed Tech Review". I chose "The Educational Optimists" because they see the future http://klrdave.blogspot.com/2008/06/web-quest-experience-blogs.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Dave)0
