Digital Footprint

Watch the video at home (it's on YouTube) about Digital Dossier (Footprint)
Have you given much thought about the tracks you are leaving and what impact those tracks may have on your life?  Do you know 40 % of employers check social site such as Facebook before hiring?  What are your thoughts on this?  Are there ways you can limit or protect yourself without becoming a hermit?

Posting Podcast to your blog

Now that you have experienced creating your MP3 files using Audacity, you're ready to publish it on the web. There are many sites that offer free Podcasting - I used http://www.podbean.com/
  1. You need to sign up and upload your MP3 file.
  2. Once your MP3 file is uploaded, you need to get the embedded code needed to copy on your blog.  Once you have copied the embedded code you are well on your way. (on the view page - click "Embeddable Player" this will take you to the embed code you need to copy)
  3. Now to post it on your blog:  Log on to your blog.  Go to your "design tab", Select "add a Gadget". 
  4. Once the Gadget is added, you paste the embedded code. 
  5. Save and view.
