RSS Feeds Project

1. All of the sites I subscribed to are useful to me since they talk about topics I am concerned or interested in. They will also keep me updated and informed about what is going on in the United States each day.
2. I found it very easy to find the feeds and had very little trouble subscribing to them.
3.My favorite sites were the fashion blog I subscribed to and the blog with hairstyles, as well. Both of these sites are ones that I am interested the most and will also be the most beneficial.
4. RSS feeds not only inform me about the sites I subscribed to, but they also notify me quickly and daily about new things happening with the sites that I may be interested in.
5. Since RSS feeds are a quick and easy way to keep me posted with my personal interests, I will definitely be looking for more feeds to subscribe to so I am more aware and know more about the things I am interested in most.

Wiki Space Manicure

I think a topic for a new wiki space could be different types of manicures you could get. There are so many different types you could get from gel tips to shellac. This wiki would have a lot of information and would provide many different tips for people trying to get a great manicure.

Invasion of Privacy by Google Maps Car

-In San Francisco, a Google Maps car was driving around in Street View
-The car was casually picking up people's usernames and passwords
-38 states came together to fix this problem
-Google was fined for $7 million
-This was no the first time Google was fined since they also were charged about $22 million last summer for a similar incident
-Hopefully, Google changes their ways and refrains from carrying out problems such as these

Time Travel

If I could go anywhere in time, I would visit the 1960's. I would want to experience the different life style during that time since it is so different now. I feel like I would like that style of living better than the one I am living now since everything was so care-free. I would want to be apart of the fun that people had during the 60's, too.If I had to visit a specific place during this time it would probably be California because it would be interesting to travel all the way across the country seeing a ton of different sites during this era. I would not want to change anything during this decade because I believe it is already extremely interesting the way it is.
