More than half of all teens and adults say that they have been bullied or harassed online. A few days ago, kids took a new poll on Internet Behavior and 56% of all of the kids between the age of 14 and 24 said that they had been bullied through digital media. This is a 50% increase from a similar test in 2009. The results of the test say that the most common forms of harassment include posting rumors online, writing mean things and and sharing texts that were meant to stay private. Also, although many people think that having the ability to remain anonymous on the internet is a major cause of the bullying, it turns out that this is a small factor to the bullying. Most bullying happens by people that the other person is close friends with. Cyber bullying has greatly increased in the past two years.

Users not happy with the new Facebook AGAIN? Once again, Facebook users are not happy with the new Facebook layout. This Wednesday, News Feeds everywhere were popping up with complaints that were very negative and filled with aggravation with another new Facebook layout. "This is absolutely the worst of the many wrong-headed 'improvements' you have made, and that's quite a feat," one Facebook user said. Many people say that this new Facebook is harder to navigate through and also has removed some well-known features. For example, the new Facebook has removed the Top News tab that was on the main news feed. The creators of this new page are saying that the new feed will act like your own personal newspaper. They say that if you check Facebook more frequently, you will see newer stories at the top of your feed. This shows how, in a way, the creators are trying to get people to keep going on Facebook constantly. Whether people like it or not, Facebook is just going to keep on changing with time.

Fall Is Coming

Fall is a great season. It has many fun activities and sports to do and it is a lot of fun. For example, Fall brings apple and pumpkin picking, which is a tradition in my family. Also, football comes around, which is a lot of fun and is very entertaining to watch. Fall brings Halloween, which is one of my favorite holidays. Between all of the candy and spooky scenery, it is a great deal of fun. Posted below is a hyper link to NFL.com. I linked this because football is a sport that starts in the fall, which relates to fall.
