1.) Proxy bidding is when a website like ebay automatically bid for you each time your outbid. Like ebay if someone outbids you then it will automatically bid a dollar more then the person before you did. But if the person like you entered a higher maximum on the proxy bidding then you may end you paying more then you wanted. But you will never pay more then you max. The purpose is really for people who cant or don't want to keep checking on the bid war and it makes it a lot easier for everyone.
2.) One of the best ways is to look for bargains is to go onto sites like shoppzilla and dealnews, and look for Smart Choice and words like that that searches for the best prices for the specific item you desire. Look for coupons on the sites and items as well.
3.)Triangulation in auctioning is when you buy stolen property from a site. when this happens you need to contact the site immediately explaining the situation. If you don't the consequences could be very bad. People steal credit card numbers to buy stolen property then sell it to you ..meaning you will be charged with receiving stolen property in the end.
4.) Virtual credit Cards are cards with a max amount of money or one rime use card numbers that will save you from idenitiy theft and clearing out your account. These numbers come from banks like bank America and discover and shop safe! I was never aware of this possibility but now that I'm educated i will definitely use this in the future. More people should know about these safe ways of shopping on the web.

Second Response Blog
1.)As soon as I went to Wikipedia I immediately knew what to search about. Unfortunately I haven't done a lot of research on our current president Barack Obama. Therefore i took this time to read about his life. This is extremely embarrassing to admit, but i actually learned a lot about him through Wikipedia. I was not aware that he graduated from Columbia University, then when on to Harvard Law School. This information was not that surprising considering he was now our current president. I was not familiar with his childhood either. I had no idea the struggles he had gone through to get where he is today. It is truly amazing what he has accomplished for being so young and powerful. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barack_Obama

Obama Girl refers to a character, played by Amber Lee Ettinger, depicted in the Internet viral video, "I've Got A Crush On Obama". The video features an attractive young woman seductively singing of her love for Junior Senator Barack Obama of Illinois. Obama is a candidate in the 2008 U.S. Presidential election. Ettinger lip-synched the song for the video, and Leah Kaufmann (of "My Box in a Box" fame) provided the vocals. The original video. This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article "Obama Girl". This entry is a fragment of a larger work. Link may die if entry is finally removed or merged.
I think that this choice will or maybe removed due to the content being irrelevant. This should not be related to our current president because its childish, and is inappropriate to link the two. I feel that this submission will be removed very soon.
3.) Web 2.0 is a perceived second generation of web development and design, that aim to facilitate communication, secure information sharing, interoperability, and collaboration the World Wide Web. Web 2.0 concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities, hosted services, and applications; such as social-networking sites, video-sharing sites, wikis, blogs, and folkonomies.
4.) I looked up IUP as well from 1997, since that was the first year we had a website. This site is extremely simple and boring. We have differently come along way since than, but i feel IUP still has a lot of work to do to catch up with technology today.
The second one that i had to look up was of course Facebook. The first website that was designed in 1998. This site is very unorganized and basically not done. The following year Facebook came up with a slogan that i said "making sure you Never Misplace a Face." This was the beginning of the evolution of Facebook. it was basically a electronic directory for people to pay to use!
