Blogs: Losing their innocence?
Friendster, the group that popularized social networking services, recently fired one of their developers for information she posted on her private blog. This isn't the first time we've seen this (Microsoft fires worker over weblog), nor will it be the last.
To help protect organizations and employees, however, it seems like it's time to update the old policy and procedure manual and communicate these changes to make sure employees understand the implications of publishing a personal blog.
