keep your chats exactly that
hi ijahnya,
i find the campaign that women'snet is doing, keep your chats exactly that, is a great approach to working with kids towards a safer and more empowering online experience. it empowers young people on how to recognise what is their limits and boundaries when it comes to online communication, and how to demand for their right to respect and privacy. and is something that we can all learn together to do as well :)

Very good article. I was
Very good article. I was recently blogging on The Netflix Prize, which deals with the quality of the recommendation. However, conclusions are drawn primarily off of user ratings. People don't seem to bother rating on facebook, I know I don't. I wonder what correlations exist there...
