An article says that The Wall Street Journal produced an article that highlighted the importance in regards to how posting to social networking sites could impact prospective employment opportunities. The article, entitled, �Mr. Pratt Cleaned Up His Act to Impress an employer; Killing a MySpace Profile,� highlighted the actions of a 22 year old, Mr. Pratt, who had at one time had a profile on MySpace that was somewhat boisterous, to say the least. The profile in question contained photographs of the individual drinking and also contained information about his dating activities.

This article I found points out that we should be careful on what we are saying and sharing on our myspace profiles because we do not know in time it might be used against us just like what happened to Mr. Pratt.

Mybragaboutmecuzimsocool. .com. Foolishness taken to the extreme. Like our local "Gangbangers" who have given their address to the sherriff on their My Space web site. Genius. But, appriciated.

Employers and prospective employers now just google your name to see who you really are. Never post anything about your current nor previous employer no matter who much you hate them. If you did it once you will do it again. No prospective employer will appreciate that.

Basically old news. This has been in the HR handbook for a few years now.

Excellent advice, I had to fire a girl a few years ago after finding her blog on the internet containing all her thoughts about the job and her co workers. The printout of it was stapled to her last paycheck...after seeing that she didn't really need more explanation on why she was no longer being employed.

It is amazing how people still think they are anonymous. An executive and a secretary (both married to someone else) were having an affair and using the company email to plan their trysts and talk cutesy. IT people can and have the authority to read all company email. You can guess the result.

I Googled a co-worker's cutesy email name last year and found a high res photo of our entire department on a singles biker blog. I took the photo and he was never even given a copy. He posted other photos of himself in Speedos. What anyone would see in an obese balding man with white chest hairs is beyond me. His manager actually looked at me and asked how I got the photos to post there. I've been putting in for his termination for cause for three years now. The reasons I've documented were grand theft, AWOL, and possession of stolen property.

Best to remember from all of these is never divulge so much information about yourself on these unsecured websites.

Also don't believe everything you read on MySpace either. As an example there are three MySpace accounts that are apparently, me, and one "dedicated" to me. None of them are actually yours truly - I don't do MySpace - but I appreciate the thought, even though all of them are juvenile attempts at insulting me (bloody beginners - in the old days you used to get a better class of insults!)! They are so ineptly put together than I never even bothered to report them.

What it is to be loved and obsessed with so much Laughing
