After listening to the podcasts, the Ted Talk, and looking back on my diary post, I started thinking about how much my iPhone keeps track of my every movement online. In the Ted Talk Curly Fry Conundrum by Jennifer Goldbeck, she talks about how there are scientists who can figure out everything about you just by your activity online. I have seen social media use this because once I just went online looking at the Crocs website because I was thinking about purchasing a new pair of Crocs. I was just looking at the different color choices online and then after a little bit of that I just shut my phone off. A little later that day, I went on facebook and saw about 5 separate ads for Crocs in my newsfeed and it creeped me out a little. Then I went onto snapchat and there were more ads about crocs. Those social media apps took my google search engine information and used it to give my targeted ads for the things they knew that I wanted to buy. That is so scary to me because it all happens behind the scenes and we as social media consumers have actually no idea how much we are being monitored every single second.

Baby Talk: Decoding The Secret Language Of Babies by Hidden Brain
https://www.npr.org/2019/09/30/765855335/baby-talk-decoding-the-secret-language-of-babies
In this podcast the reader discussed how babies learn and communicate. They used a lot of music and background music to captivate their audience and make it so it wasn’t just voices that the listener hears. They also played a lot of baby talk to explain how the babies communicate. They added a quote from a woman but she read the quote which provided a new voice in the podcast. The background music was varied and changed every few minutes and added to the variety of noise. They also added in the interview style and interviewed a woman that worked at a daycare and experienced how babies and toddlers communicate. A Beauty and the Beast song was added in which was cool to listen to because I knew the words and made the podcast more interesting.
