In Will Richardson’s Footprints in the Digital Age he talks about the things that we post on the internet could affect how people think about us or what our background will tell about our future. In the article it states that students need to post items on their blogs that will help them in the future and make them seem smart and influential. This will affect our education because we are posting things on the internet right now and we need to make sure that the things we post are correct and will help us make a good impression of ourselves to the people reading our blogs or postings. For example the little girl has a very good digital footprint because she was doing good things on the web with charity and was very influential. But other people make themselves seem like misanthropes because they post negative or mean things. The world needs to post smart things on the internet to make sure that people view them as smart good people. Having a good digital footprint will help everyone get far in life.
