One of the things I heard people talking about last week was digital footprints: the data we knowingly or unknowingly leave behind when we register for a Web site, buy something online, or participate in social networks. Here's a rather interesting article on that topic that reinforces your hunches about the importance of helping kids know about their digital presence (what Steve Dembo calls "your new permanent record).
(PS - The link to this article comes from media maven Buffy Hamilton, who will be one of our virtual guest speakers later this month.)
