love these three-day weekends

After reading your blogs, it seems there is a difference of opinions regarding Friday's pop quiz. (I love differences of opinion!) Some of you hated it, saying there was not enough time to answer questions and too much pressure. Both good points. Keep in mind that it was only worth 10 points, and it will not have a monumental effect on your grade. Also, the next time you see these questions will be on a test, where the same questions will be worth more. So maybe the pop quiz was really a sneak preview.

Also, I really enjoyed last week's discussion about how we are giving GPS, Alexa, Siri, ancestry.com, and maybe even law enforcement agencies permission to track us. Again, there was a difference of opinion, with some of you saying that being tracked is creepy, some saying you have no problem with being tracked, and some believing it just doesn't happen as much as we think.

To which I offer you this story that came out at the same time that we had our class discussions.

On behalf of Siri and me, enjoy your weekend!
