I’ve been on Facebook, or "The Book" as I prefer to call it (I know, slightly biblical), since a time when if you mentioned it in polite conversation, people would look
at you like you were from the moon.
Nowadays, Facebook, Twitter and a menagerie of other social
media have become the norm, all while rapidly changing the way we communicate, make
decisions and live our lives.
Along with these changes come a whole bevy of new lapses in
judgement, senselessness, and flat out folly. I’ll be using examples from my
own social networks, as well as others I come across while out scouring the
net, as jump-off points for discussion on this blog.
No user profile will be safe from scrutiny, no company too large to belittle. But don’t worry, it will all be done in the service of the greater good.
So hold on, pay attention and please, please, please think before you post… because the concurrent beauty and drawback of social media is: you never know who might be watching.
