Digital Footprint

A digital footprint is the data trace or trail left by someone's activity in a digital environment. Digital footprints are the capture in an electronic fashion of memories and moments and are built from the interaction with TV, mobile phone, world wide web, internet, mobile web and other digital equipment. In my own words this means that colleges/work places will be Googleing your name and what they search should be positive examples no half naked pictures of you in the club that is not what Facebook, twitter and Instagram is for. When creating a social network makes sure you know the risks of adding your information to the website. Be sure to have your parents consent and don't just add/follow anybody that sends you a request its good to know them. The way i could improve my digital footprint is for me to delete my facebook because i am never on it and if somebody had to judge me off only my Facebook i would not be criticized positively.
