Chapter 3 talked about webcams and symbols that are used in our society and just to warn you now i am a terrible speller so without word i’m probably gonna butcher most words. When I was reading this though all i could thing was that will all of these cameras everywhere people have access to everything we do almost every second of the day unless we’re out in the middle of nowhere where no has a camera on us, but even then we still aren’t too sure. Everywhere we go whether it is on the road or even in a hotel there is a camera on us all the time. This also makes me think of cell phones because it is like we are always available and with this it is like we never get alone time or time to ourselves because this chapter make it sound like a camera is on us all the time no matter where we are. We come a long way in technology in the past 20 years and who know where we’ll be in the next 20 years. All these webcams everywhere just feel like an invasion of privacy but i guess that they do do some good too like they catch robbers or people that run red lights. So i suppose that there is some good to these webcams, but oonly a little bit.
This process of writing felt really wierd for me because i was not able to look at the screen and see what i was writing and it was extremely hard to keep my pinky away from the back space button. I’m not going to lie i did hit the backspace button a couple of times because it’s just a reflex that happens during typing and it is almost impossible to stop unless you are really concentrating or going slow enough to make, and also by not looking at the screen it felt like i was writing a message to one of my friends so i was tempted to put an “lol” in some areas but i remembered that i couldn’t do that for school, and i was just tempted to do it again. The freewrite does keep a stream of conciousness and idea going but at the very same time it just feels like i’m writing something that is very sloppy. i wonder if we will be talking about doing the freewrite during the discussion tomorrow. Well my time is up so i’m going to publish this now.
