  4. Everything is so much quicker so people can send an email and it reaches its destination in a couple of minutes. You don't have to stress about phoning people when you can just type something in and send it. You don't have to go anywhere, just sit back.

  5. Great to see you are contributing to our class blog Kuini and Adam :) have you answered the question? It is true a digital citizen uses a variety of technology to communicate but why do people need to be responsible online users? Kuini, you are on the right track with your thinking. There are definitely dangers on the Internet and we certainly need to have nettiquette, but what are they and why are they important?

  8. People have to be digital citizens because it is important that everyone knows and learns how to use technoligy the right way. Anyone can cyber bully other people so it is important to have netiquette towards every online user. Never go to inappropriate and super gross websites that make you under aged, even if rude and nasty stuff are deleted on your computer it doesnt mean it is deleted off everyone elses. A digital citizen is not just someone who uses the internet it is someone who uses technoligy such as computers, laptops, tablets, ipads, samsungs, and I pod touches.

    1. Wow Keira, you definitely know what a responsible digital citizen should do. I'm not so sure people think the Internet doesn't exist any more? Why do you think this? The Internet is only 25 years old, the point is that it is always changing for good or bad and people need to realise how fast the Internet changes. It is probably a bit like some of you are learning today for jobs that don't exist yet. I wonder what you will be doing when you grow up?
