Morning Freewrite!

So far for my Project Web I have found my group topic and I have an idea of what I'm actually going to write about. I haven't done much research but because my topic is do not text and drive I already have some ideas from what I have seen in the past. For my part in this project I am stating my opinion about the commercials AT&T has created about the causes of texting and driving. I still need to find more articles and documentary about this issue. I think I have a variety of sources that I can rely on because this topic is such an important and "hot" topic in California. My steps to my ideal completed project are not done yet because I only a couple of posts and still need more and still to complete my final paper. I'm actually looking forward to Project Web because I have so much to say about this topic!

Favorite Article Post

My favorite article from all four that I read was "What's the Matter with Kids Today?" by Amy Goldwasser. What surprised me the most about this article was I have never actually read something that supports teenagers browsing the Internet and calling it their social life. Because of the access the internet has giving us we are better educating us with what is happen in the world. For example, we have easy access to YouTube that can provide us with many different videos to watch about what is going on with the president so we can have a clear idea of what is happening in our world today. I agree with this article because the Internet is extremely a useful source for everyone to use. Many people do not usually agree that the Internet is the greatest thing out there but in this article Amy was actually explaining what good things come out of it and how useful it is for teenagers to use. I agree with her that people need to stop thinking of the Internet as such a bad thing towards teenagers because one day those teens could use the knowledge they know about the Internet to do something successful in their life.
