Fear of Technology

I have had cause to reflect over the last week on my ability to undertake the tasks for e-Learning? I struggled to navigate Moodle, find the Wiki sit and complete the tasks. Only this week did I put those fears aside and work my way, methodically, through various forums and then gave things a go. I successfully completed the wiki task. I also have been musing over the security aspect of this course. I work in an environment where I do not share or request personal information so i have been cautious about what information I put on an unsecured site. This includes the actual URL name. Should I be concerned? Would people REALLY use this information for harm? I have also reflected on my eagreness to create a blog, website or profile? I have previously perceived that most bloggers, twitters etc have a bit of an ego in that they wish to self promote or get attention. I stuggle with this a little on a personal level, however realise that promoting one's business, skill on social media is the new advertising. Ego OR good business advertising???
