Homo Viator

As of today you can use Piclens also on Amazon, 3D shopping: Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice!

So what should it be: The new iPhone or the new Blackberry. Maybe both?

I obviously know that I leave traces of my life online: I have a blog and post pics on facebook from time to time. Even though I do not allow public viewing of my pics on facebook, my profile picture is made public without my explicit approval (it must be somewhere in the small print). Just two weeks after my nieces have been born, there is already a picture of Carlotta and me that anyone who knows my name can have a look at. I know that this is hardly to the pleasure of Carlotta's mom and I would rather not have that much transparency either. This is what I like about my blog. Everything that is on my blog (Pics, Videos, etc.) is googlable, because I choose for it to be.

What I cannot understand is how people can leave their adresses and mobile numbers on facebook. Friends of mine who have done that keep telling me about cold calls from advertisers on their cell phones. I have never received such a cold call and would freak out if I ever did.

Anyway, on 123people.com you can track your online traces. It is rather surprising to see where some of my videos end up. One website created a channel with the title Schnippo's Videos. I am cool with that, since by choosing to post videos on my blog, I know that these become public and in the worst case scenarion could also land on Youporn for example.
