Week 8 and 9 Tasks - Interent Field Trip & Preparation for essay

This week is a catch up or what I like to call BLUDGE WEEK lol no not really.
Weeks 8 task was to look up some interesting and interactive websites. I found a couple that I consider to be unique and somewhat obscure:

http://www.habbo.com/
this webpage is an online interactive game where the user can play as a character and move around in a 2D world to undertake various tasks, chat and interact with other online people playing the game

http://www.superbad.com/
hummm words cant really explain, check it out

Week 9 is based on preparation for the essay thats due next week 10. It sounds stupid but Im finding it difficult to come up with an informative and interesting topic when there is no specific essay question and we can write about anything and everything. I think im going to go with a topic based on internet privacy and its moral and ethical issues that influence activities on the interent. This would be a good topic because im sure i could gather a lot of online and written materials. This is important because my downfall in the last essay i wrote (in another subject) was my use of references. Also the topic relates to everyone that uses the net, everyday users through to large scale finance and business use.
