That's why I set all my profiles to private and, even then, only share info I wouldn't mind getting back to my clients. Social networks can be a great way to interact with clients and—as a journalist—chase story leads, but you have to use them correctly. Great advice, and excellent blog post. It’s true!

What is their editorial gold standard and why is that the benchmark? Rather than a basis of embarrassment, how about a proactive personal brand framework? Your advice to keep in mind the act of posting is opening the door to your life. What do you want the world, yes the world to see, read, hear about you? All of your posts create a public persona, a personal brand message to any reader. This is: who I am, what I stand for, the behaviors and beliefs which are important to me. What an individual posts is keen insight into their judgment and values. Joseph P. Murphy Shaker Consulting Group, Inc Developers of the Virtual Job Tryout® Anything your parents might read….?

Your theory (with a suggested change) is absolutely correct, "if it’s online, it is already in the public domain." I would go further and say once information is put on a computer, or any computer media, it can never be really be expunged. I always advise clients to use computers only for data that can be shared with the world. In respect to privacy and the social networking sites, people need to understand that these sites are not replacements for the water cooler or back fence. Venting orally over the back fence or at the water cooler provides for 'plausible deniability." One can always claim that statements were taken out of context, or simply misinterpreted. Another truth is that writing is much more deliberate than speaking, so the level of believability is enhanced. Finally, data placed on an electronic device is easily, and sometimes automatically ,replicated. I hope your blog helps people realize the public nature of electronic media.
