As I was creating my profile for Ecademy (do you have a visible presence there yet?), I kept thinking about this article.

In particular were these statements:
<< The blurring of the lines between searching for jobs and making friends online raises the question of who is reading what you post.>>
and
<< People posting information online should know that anyone could be looking at it.>>
As I’ve said in earlier posts, remember that whatever you say on the Internet is like posting it on the front page of a national publication. If you feel passionate about a cause, stop and take a deep breath and think before you post. Before you leave that cutting barb in response to an offensive comment, remember it is “out there” forever. And is that personal comment you are about to post on brand or off brand?
