Internet safety is really important in this day and age . . . but their are so many way to stay safe while using the computer. the computer deffinately should not be a risk to you, but it can be. Some really good ways to stay internet safe, particularily when youre blogging include:
Be as anonymous as possible. Avoid postings that could enable a stranger to locate you. That includes your last name, the name of your school, sports teams, the town you live in, and where you hang out.
Protect your personal information.
Avoid in-person meetings, always!
Photos: Think before posting. What’s uploaded to the Net can be downloaded by anyone and passed around or posted online pretty much forever.
Check comments regularly. If you allow them on your profile or blog, check them often. Don’t respond to mean or embarrassing comments. Delete them and, if possible, block offensive people from commenting further.
Be honest about your age. Membership rules are there to protect people. If you are too young to sign up, do not attempt to lie about your age.
