15. What footprints are you leaving?
16. Unlike in sand the digital footprints you make and leave once made do not wash away
17. What you do online are your digital footprints that make up your digital persona – they are an extension of you.

They represent you.
You have to be aware, monitor, and filter them. You have to take care of them.
You have to take responsibility for them.
You have to be in charge of your digital self….

The social web is an amazing place that enhances and enriches our personal and professional lives.

Think about this… online you are … and you become … who you know, what you link to, what you share, what you bookmark, what comments you leave, what you blog, the pictures & videos you post, the art you create, how you express yourself, where you go…
