Online Legacy

A legacy is something that was passed down to some one or it is very old. A legacy can be something that some one left behind so that everybody can learn from it. In the dictionary it says that a legacy is an amount of money or property left to someone in a will or something handed down by a predecessor. A legacy can be anything or any one like kids are their parents legacy because they have the traits from their parents. A legacy can be a book or a dead person that you care about and you make their legacy known to every body.
The legacy I want to leave is my work and how creative I was in my work. I wont other people learn from my work when they see it. I want them to know that I wanted to become a computer engineer when I grow up and I want to learn how to play the guitar. I wont them to know that I had to work hard to get were I am today. I want my teachers to remember me for the quality of work I did and how I acted in class.
What I can put online so that everybody can see my legacy is my work from high school. My work form high school can show how I grew as a student and what the quality of my work was. I can also put pictures that I did my self to show how creative I was. Then I can put pictures of me as a baby all the way to when I am a grown up to show how I matured. Then I can write a biography of my self to describe who I am and were I am from.
People leave online legacies’ so every body can see their love one that was lost. Like people who died in the war or a cancer patent that died. There are a lot of Legacy websites that you put tributes and info about a love one. Like www.legacy.com that has thousands of legacies of people who died and there families put there biography online. An example of a online legacy I saw was Beauford H. Clayton and D’Angela Michelle Gilbert.
D’Angela Michella Gilbert legacy was made as a tribute to her when she died. She was born on June 25th 1984 and she died 2006. The online legacy was made with music photos and text with a Moving Tribute. Beauford H. Clayton was another online tribute to him it had music, text , photos, and Moving Tribute. They were all made in Adobe Flash player and were made on 2005.
