Welcome

Currently I work as a technician/ teaching assistant in the art and technology department at a secondary school in East London. Prior to this I studied at London College of Fashion (LCF) and Central St Martin’s (CSM). I have been working as an artist since my time at CSM, mainly doing commissioned work and working for small bespoke design companies and set up my own company called Not Quite Lauren last year. Over the last year I have decided that I would like to focus on becoming a teacher. Hopefully on completion of this course I will be able to do a Graduate teaching program (GTP).

Email account cruption

It might appear to some people that i have been quit negative towards web 2.0 technologies, highlighting their flaws rather then their numerous good points, and there are many but find it hard to mention they when i keep being confronted by negative points. The latest one happened this morning when i received a phone call from my father, apparently i had sent him an email at 6:00 this morning containing a wed link which if clicked on informed him that i was selling Viagra from Canada!! It would appear that somebody has hacked into my yahoo email account and sent this message to everybody in my contacts list. Most of which are business contacts! I would understand this happening if i had not protected my computer correctly, but i have and the software is updated regularly. This is highly annoying and if anybody has any ideas of how to stop it please let me know and if anybody reading this has received one of these emails i apologise.
