For the last week or so, everyone in Mr. Kimbley's class has been working on My Digital Life. So far, what this simulation has been teaching are some things even I didn't know (and I am constantly on the internet, using my laptop, etc.). So far, what I have learned are some ways to keep person information. Before, I never though fondly of using a lot of symbols, letters, and numbers scattered around as a password, but that definitely changed after I was tested on that. Another thing I have learned about is choosing a good device. Even though I new what RAM was needed for, and what CPU stood for, it really made me think, "What do I mainly use my laptop for? Should I have gotten a device with more RAM or less? Should I get a desktop with a big monitor instead of a laptop considering it gives an advantage for my personal use. These things will really help me the next time I consider buying a device. 
     Some other things I have learned are how I can keep myself safe from texting and driving, even though I haven't even began driving. It will definitely help me in the future. One other thing I learned is what is reliable and what is not on the internet. Say you are looking for a legitimate blog or something to that sort, you have to note things like "Is the author/publisher experienced? Does he keep all his information updated?"
