The Look Up: To Infinity

I discovered this week that I never turned off my Google activity tracking. That's awesome for remembering what to put in this post but really bad for data privacy overall. Time to consider my options. If you want to learn more about your Google activity tracking, head over to your personal page.

My goal for this series of posts is to share all of the interesting things we research in everyday life. The caveat is that I get to decided what's on the list. I do not share what I research on behalf of our students and faculty, I do not share searches that overlap with the privacy others in my life, I also do not share things that I do not wish to share. Again, I get to make that decision. Google, on the other hand, just tracks everything. They then use that for marketing. If you want to see what Google tracks and how to stop it, visit this article on c|net.

  • Generations - I was very curious about the naming around recent generations. As an early Millennial (sometimes known as a member of the Oregon Trail generation), I don't often have the same experiences as younger members in my generation. I was also prompted to look at my kid's generation. Obviously, she's too young to declare trends and types, but now I know that she is considered Generation Alpha.
  • Books from Birth List - Our kid is in this program and I was curious about the titles we'd be receiving the rest of the year.
  • Star Trek Beyond - We watched the movie last weekend and I was looking up various actors to see where I recognized them from. I have a great ability to say, "I know I know you from somewhere..." but I can't always identify the actual where.
