Goolge Searches

I find it very disturbing that Google and other search engines are able to track the different searches we look at on a regular basis. Not only that, but many of the records that Google is keeping, date back two years ago, and it is disturbing knowing that someone can jump on your computer and find out the information you have been searching for on the internet. It makes me wonder what people know about me that I want to keep to myself. And what if you are using a computer that completely removes everything off of the computer that was used that day when it shuts down. Are those computers exempt from this or are we being tracked everywhere we go? AS of now, there are no privacy laws that are protecting us from any information on the internet. This makes me very nervous, but the internet is such a convenient thing to have, its like we are taking things … like security for granted. I think it is time to crack down and start creating laws to protect us in the long run, if not I think that the Internet is going to be out of control and we are going to run into a lot of problems.

Email Etiquette

I think it is very important to understand the difference between chatting with your friends and sending a professional email. Email is so convenient, so quick and so easy, it is almost as if we take things for granted and have become lazy. When it comes to the grammar and punctuation that has been pounded into our heads since we were 5, we don’t always care if we use it properly chatting on the internet or sending a “quick” email. I think it is important to keep a professional image and be cautious of the things you say and send on the internet. Once you put something on the internet, it will always be there regardless of whether or not you deleted it.

It is very easy to send an email. Think about it. It is a great way to communicate. When you are having one of those days where you don’t want to be social and just want to be left alone, you can sit at home in your comfy leather chair and communicate with others. The best part about this is that no one is going to know whether or not you are in your pjs. You can say what you want and how you want to say it without even looking at someone else. At the same time this great way of communicating has it’s downfalls. Not everyone thinks that email is great and not everyone is great about responding. Also, it is sometimes hard to get your message across and people have a hard time understanding what you want to say. Email can be very beneficial if used in the right way and it can also be a hassle.

Cousin Letter

1400 Old Main Hill
Logan, UT 84322



Amanda Jones
123 River Street
Ely, NV 45321

Dear Amanda,

It’s back to school time once again. I am definitely still in summer mode and not ready for all the homework and stress that comes with college. Thank goodness this is my last year, but then it’s to the real world I go and that is pretty scary too. I am not sure if grandma told you or not, but I changed my major to Agriculture Communication and Journalism with an emphasis in Public Relations (PR). It’s a pretty cool deal because when it’s all said and done I will basically be graduating with two degrees. I am sure you, like most people who ask, are wondering what on earth I am going to do with my degree.

According to public relations experts Doug Newsom and Jim Haynes, public relations practice is the art and science of analyzing trends, predicting their consequences, counseling their organizational leaders, and implementing planned programs for action which will serve both the organizations and the public’s interest. Basically I will be responsible for understanding the diversities in the different publics, applying communication to them, and be responsible for reacting to emerging issues in those publics that are likely to affect organizations and/or clients.

Along with being able to deal with the public and maintain great relationships with them, public relations professionals have to be able to write. Most of the writings that PR professionals are responsible for are called press releases. These are a flyer/memo/statement that goes out to many of the mass media outlets to inform the public of upcoming events.
Public Relations writers have to be very careful when communicating with the public so they don’t damage any relationships with organizations/clients. They also have to be very careful of attacks on the credibility of the organization/client and they must always check and verify the information they receive before they distribute it to any of the publics. It is very important for PR professionals to understand every aspect of the client/organization they are representing and do their best to maintain good relationships with the public.

My overall goal is to use my degree to go back to Nevada and work with the Farm Bureau to be an Ag-in-the classroom coordinator. I want to help teachers incorporate agriculture into their everyday classroom standards and continue to promote the importance of agriculture. I actually received a call from a member of the Nevada Farm Bureau wondering if I am interested in a communication position they are putting together. I was so excited to hear from him and am definitely interested. I would be responsible for putting together a magazine for the Farm Bureau and sending out a quarterly newsletter to supporters of Nevada agriculture. We will see what happens. I miss you Manda!! Take care and good luck at school!
