Matt Parsons brought to my attention that the link I'd posted was DEFINATELY NOT the one I had meant to post!!!
So embarassed.........
I tried trying something new and exciting by adding a picture to my blog since I'd seen others doing the same. Apparently that was a FAIL.
It wasv SUPPOSED to be a flow chart of how arguments go on the internet...which I'm not going to even try to post again.
All the more reason to enjoy the box that I live in.
I think this is a fascinating turn in our conversation Jodi! What happens when our links are broken, or point to the wrong place? Or what happens when we don't check our work and send the wrong message to our audience? I recently sent out an e-newsletter to 5,000 of our customers in which I posted our "video of the month." It was a whitewater kayaking video that had a music overlay. The music was profanity-laden hip hop, which I either failed to register because I'm so used to it, or I didn't bother to turn the sound up loud enough to hear it when I screened it.
ReplyDeleteLet's just say I got emails and sent out personal apologies to a few customers. With few editors or censors on the web, the amount of "inappropriate for some audiences" material out there can be dangerous. But, as Jodi was able to do, it is possible to remove this content once we do find it. Unfortunately, like the Wallace's case, the damage was already done.
Thanks Jodi for bringing all this up. Even though it was unintentional, I think it was a great learning moment! ;)
Ouch! It may be important in downloading video, but then, who wants to buy a server? And it is copied and lost control over. Ugg, what an issue! Yes, links can be sketchy.
