Week 8 Privacy

I thought the variety in the blog entries related to privacy was really interesting. Of course, they ran the gamit from the privacy habits and feelings of different generations and groups to the practices of individual libraries to how we all forget or rather ignore that facilities like Google are harvesting information on us and use them anyway. But not only the focus, but manner in which items were discussed was all over the board--short informational pieces, long diatribes that took forever to get to the point. I was especially struck at the level of sarcasm that was in the posts I saw.
