At one point or another everyone will have to organize and write a resume. Whether it is for a job, internship, or an assignment in a class, it is crucial to write it correctly. Not everyone knows how to write a resume, let alone do it correctly. A common mistake I found to be true after reading the articles was focusing your resume on your achievements, not your responsibilities. Often times a lot of people have a tendency to write out their life story, and that is the last thing an employer is looking to read. A resume is what you have a accomplished in the past, not what you want to do in the future. From class I found it interesting how we created an HTML version of our resumes. Not only have I never worked with HTML, but I learned that you should create that version of your resume. Resumes are often times the key to getting an interview and sometimes even a job. It is important to you and your future jobs to research and write a correctly formatted resume.

Insidious online tactics are becoming more prevalent with the Internet and need to be addressed. As I have browsed through web pages, ads, and the news, there are always places for people to comment their thoughts. I love reading through the comments posted because they often times are ridiculous, pointless, derogatory, and matter of fact, funny to read. In the article The Core Rules of Netiquette, I found rule number 7 the most interesting. Rule number 7 covered how to keep flame wars under control. I didn't know that the tactless act of people expressing their strong emotions has a name. Such acts and messages are known as "flaming." I agree when it states that flames can be fun both to write and read. But there is a time and place when one has gone too far and one comment turns in to a series of bashing comments. It is up to our own judgments to determine what is Internet worthy and what is not. Although we may avoid using them and understand the different contexts. I hope that through exposing these tactics we can stop the abuse in online conversations.
