Netiquette is like manners for the internet.Having bad netiquette does effect everybody! Good netiquette would be telling somebody if they made a mistake to tell them in private and off line so they don't take it in a bad or offensive way. Poor Netiquette would be commenting on somebody's post and saying the spelled something
wrong or they made an error and humiliate them in front of their piers

Downloading Music
Downloading and Sharing Music off of the internet is illegal. Breaking this law, which is done often, you will have to pay many fee's plus you will have to pay the artist in who created the song a fine for stealing illegally. Although you are allowed to download the music and listen it off the computer. You are not allowed to copy it onto a CD-ROM and give it to friends. That is a Violation to Copyright law.
Copyright Case
This Huge Copyright battle between Warner Brothers and the half owner of Super man;Jerry Siegel. Jerry sued Warner Brothers for using the idea of Superman, even though they don't have the right to use it. Warner Bothers found a loop hole, the beat around the bush by using a new name and they put a new name on the inside cover of the comic they came up with. Warner Brothers ended up winning the case by settling with the half owner of Super man. And now Warner Brothers can proceed with there new movie coming out; Man of Steel.

Jamaica Project
I think that my research project on Jamaica was horrible. I mean it was kinda okay but I personally think I could have done better. My favorite part about my project was learning about all the different places to go in Jamaica. But the worst thing I thought was having to present in front of the class, lets just say I don't do very good talking to crowds. The one thing I thought was the most difficult thing to find was, figuring out what i was going to say about each slide instead of reading a whole bunch of text. The strong points in my presentation were that I kept eye contact with the audience. Weak points were that i would take long pauses in between slides because i was so nervous. Suggestions for Mrs. Fowler would be to not have us present to the class in the future.

Apple Maps Confusing you?
In this article on the link below informed me that Google maps on the new iphone5 has a glitch, giving you bad directions, buildings and landmarks are in the wrong spots. Apple needs to now make another update in order to fix this small glitch. Also people have been complaining that directions are not clear and are becoming confusing. Apple maps are failing.http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2012/09/28/has-apple-maps-gotten-you-lost.html
