Big brother or big business?

November 19, 2007 by Christine Olson

Clear all your cookies from your computer then visit your favorite website. Now check your cookies!

Not all websites are the same. The big ones like Yahoo, MSN and even a few small ones leave a nice sum of cookies on the computer. A smaller quilting website I know attaches as many cookies as some of the big guys. :(

Ever wonder what all those cookies do? Sure, some of these cookies are very useful and perhaps necessary but are all of them?

Check out the role of cookies on howstuffworks.com. You’ll see that it not only makes navigating a site easy but it makes “monitoring” your visits in and around websites pretty easy. ;-)

Yep, like junk mail…don’t want it, don’t need it, can’t get rid of it. Sigh…

  • THINK ABOUT IT!

    Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not his own facts.
    ~Daniel Patrick Moynihan

    "Feeling sorry for yourself, and your present condition, is not only a waste of energy but the worst habit you could possibly have."
    ~ Dale Carnegie

    Spin it all you want. Two wrongs DON'T make a right!
    ~a mother

    "You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
    ~Mahatma Gandhi
