DL3, HW5, Focus Group

One group to focus on would be the average internet user. Every day it’s possible the average internet user will have identity theft, a computer virus, or maybe a conversation with a sexual predator. They will want to read on how to prevent this, what to look for, or just to read what is going on in today’s world. The average internet user could be a mother of two letting her teenage daughter finally onto the internet. However, is it safe? Does mom really know what’s out there? She might want to do some research, like reading my research question to see if she ready to have her daughter be on the internet. Or perhaps you have the family father of four buying his wife’s birthday present a day late online and is now a victim of identity theft. These are the people, the group, that I want to focus on.

I've had someone steal my bank info on-line and have been phished a couple times on myspace.com. it makes me angry that people do that sort of thing. i kinda want to try to understand why they do it. especially why people phish myspace accounts. theres nothing of any real value. but i think that you are going with a really great direction on this.
