Show Notes
Tacos & Email
There are two pressing issues we discuss in this episode: tacos & email. There is an abundance of both. Take a listen to episode no. 13 as we talk about managing your digital self/data in email and more, and how to get the most out of the myriad of taco options in Texas.
Talking about Tacos:
In thinking about email, Jeff and Laura chat about the platforms and spaces they use for this type of computer-mediated communication channel. The score for email accounts we each have total:
Clearly Laura is looking to bring down this number and perhaps do another
digital clean-up 2.0. We talk a bit about email; however, there are greater stakes at hand as technology companies merge or takeover other entities in the tech world. What happens to those terms of service (TOS) you first agreed to when the company changes ownership? What are the possibilities for your information and data with this new owner? Will you stay with a platform or app if these TOS go against your personal privacy issues?
We have made an oath, that is a promise that we will start to clean up our digital lives and archive content posted on social media and other sites we don’t own NOW. We’ll let you know how it goes and y’all need to hold us to it. We will do a check-in and update down the road to some of our own archiving solutions and strategies to reclaim our life online.

What is BreakDrink Podcast?
BreakDrink is an occasional chat with Jeff Jackson and Laura Pasquini about life, work, and random stuff. There’s a good chance you’ll hear these co-hosts talk about their thoughts on current events, ukuleles, the NBA, podcasts, higher ed, rescue dogs, research, books, technology, and tacos… not in any particular order. They may even invite a friend to the pod to chat. Really, it’s a podcast to encourage you to take a break from the day and have a friend fill your cup.
