Some security tips for creating and keeping a blog

• In order to keep your blog, set up an e-mail address which does not reveal your true identity.
• Although you don't reveal it, the police can find out who you are, so be responsible for what you write on the blog: never post anything offensive to people who you know, specially teachers: what you do online can get you into real trouble in your real life.
• 
  Think about the future: even if you don't think the content in your blog compromises you now, it could eventually do so.
• 
  Never arrange a face-to-face meeting with someone that you have met online.
• 
  Never post pictures of yourself to people you do not personally know.
• 
  Never give out identifying information such as address, personal e-mail or phone number.
• 
  Never download pictures from an unknown source, as there is a good chance they will portray pornography or violence. The Google Image search engine is normally free from this content.
• 
  Never respond to messages or bulletin board postings that are suggestive, obscene, belligerent, or harassing.
• 
  Be suspicious of information you see online-it may or may not be true.
• 
  Don't let your online life substitute your contact with the outside world: keep meeting friends, talk to and hug your friends and relatives.
• 
  Don't spend long periods of time online, especially at night. Share with your parents everything you learn online. Don't hesitate to ask teachers for help.
• 
  Don't rush to be an adult, it's fun being a teenager. You'll eventually turn 18 and you will be able to access all that now is not recommended for you.
• 
  Never accept mail, gifts, money or packages from someone you don't know. Don't let adults other than your parents refill your mobile phone credit.
• 
  Show your parents your progress with the new technologies, show them you can keep your own blog: they will be proud of you.
• 
  Never try to pretend you are someone else, using other people's identity: this is a crime, so this can get you into serious trouble.
