    Online Instant Messaging: Keeping Your Child Safe and Secure Presented by: Meredith Stannard, Nauset Regional High School [email protected] Barbara Dominic, Nauset Regional Middle School [email protected] Kathy Schrock, Nauset Public Schools [email protected] Spring 2003 1 Instant messages are lasting ©2001. USA Today. http://www.usatoday.com/tech/news/2001-06-21-teens-im-lasting.htm By Karen Thomas, USA TODAY Breaking up. Making up. Making plans. Asking out. Saying "hey." From the mundane to the emotionally charged, there are no limits to the ways today's kids connect and bond over instant messages (IMs) — those pop-up text windows used for carrying on real-time conversations online. "It's not just empty chatter. They're using (IMs) to have difficult conversations — someone's talking behind your back and you want to confront them," says Amanda Lenhart of the Pew Internet & American Life project. Its survey, out Thursday, finds that nearly three-fourths of online kids ages 12 to 17 rely on IMs to keep in touch with friends. Caroline Barker, 16, is among 35% of teens who use IMs daily; she chats with about 10 close friends and 50 acquaintances in the Bethesda, Md., area. "It's especially good for making plans, or if you're just bored," she says. "It's a given that everybody has it," adds her friend Valerie Hutchins, 15. These Maryland friends IM while doing homework, talking on the phone and watching TV. And they offer insight to the complex social rules that come with a form of communication that still has many adults bewildered.

Computer • History Museum Oral History of Winifred Mitchell Baker Interviewed by: Marc Weber Recorded: December 10, 2014 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X7311.2015 © 2015 Computer History Museum Oral History of Winifred Mitchell Baker Marc Weber: I'm Marc Weber of the Computer History Museum. And I'm here with Mitchell Baker, Chairwoman of Mozilla. Thank you so much for doing this interview. Winifred Mitchell Baker: Thanks, Marc. I'm happy to be here. The museum has been a bright spot for a long time, so I'm honored as well. Weber: Thank you. As am I. So start with a bit of your background. What is your full name? And when and where were you born? Baker: My full name is Winifred Mitchell Baker. My mom was a little eccentric though, and she never wanted me to use Winifred. So it's my first name. But in her mind, I was always Mitchell. So that's what I go by. And I was born in Berkeley in California in 1959. Weber: And tell me a little bit about your family and where you grew up. Baker: I grew up in Oakland, so the East Bay across from San Francisco. It borders Berkeley. My parents were born and raised on the East Coast and moved west, as people did in the '50s, where it seemed [like] starting a new life. They were each eccentric. And each had their own view of their world and really clear opinions. And I think some of that has rubbed off actually. Weber: So eccentric in what way? What did they do? Baker: Well, my dad was a classic entrepreneur.

  • Marcia Knous: My Name Is Marcia Knous
    Olivia Ryan: Can you just state your name? Marcia Knous: My name is Marcia Knous. OR: Just give us your general background. How did you come to work at Mozilla and what do you do for Mozilla now? MK: Basically, I started with Mozilla back in the Netscape days. I started working with Mozilla.org shortly after AOL acquired Netscape which I believe was in like the ’99- 2000 timeframe. I started working at Netscape and then in one capacity in HR shortly after I moved working with Mitchell as part of my shared responsibility, I worked for Mozilla.org and sustaining engineering to sustain the communicator legacy code so I supported them administratively. That’s basically what I did for Mozilla. I did a lot of I guess what you kind of call of blue activities where we have a process whereby people get access to our CVS repository so I was the gatekeeper for all the CVS forms and handle all the bugs that were related to CVS requests, that kind of thing. Right now at Mozilla, I do quality assurance and I run both our domestic online store as well as our international store where we sell all of our Mozilla gear. Tom Scheinfeldt: Are you working generally alone in small groups? In large groups? How do you relate to other people working on the project? MK: Well, it’s a rather interesting project. My capacity as a QA person, we basically relate with the community quite a bit because we have a very small internal QA organization.
