For sure it outs them Ryan. Yeah but if you liked your privacy so much, I doubt if you'd have a blog, Christopher. I'm glas it's worked for you, Rek, I have made a few friends, but my blog friends are better. Funny Rapunzel; I know that entry gets thousands of hits, I can't rid myself of him and he seems to be everywhere suddenly.

But then again I'm one of those people that thinks he's incredibly witty and every random thought I have should be recorded for posterity.

I think it's best to just assume anything you put on Facebook or Twitter could possibly be seen by the whole world and then post only that which would be safe to post under those circumstances. Posting while under the influence of anything would probably not be a good idea. :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03865193802444007545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-19416821842335859632011-02-17T18:44:26.917-08:002011-02-17T18:44:26.917-08:00crap - I just spent ages crafting personal replies...crap - I just spent ages crafting personal replies and lost them all.

I honestly don't really care what my friends are having for lunch or that they are listening to the new Lady Gaga CD at the moment. I mean, if they tweeted about news or interesting things, that would be different...<br /><br />I agree. Social media is kinda scary. The stuff we say on FB and twitter will come back to haunt us in the future. It never goes away, it just disappears into cyber space even after you hit delete.<br /><br />I actually got in huge trouble for a status update once.

As I've said before (and I've written about this in Why I Don't Tweet): it's too easy to instantaneously shoot off every random, banal, unfiltered, uncensored thought in one's head to the entire world. The whole World. I don't think, under any circumstance, this is ever a good idea. <br />Though I must confess, I have a Twitter account but never use it. ;)Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06694559900539722616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8786284110007207873.post-72886311127773017872011-02-17T04:44:52.263-08:002011-02-17T04:44:52.263-08:00We take everything everyone says way too seriously...We take everything everyone says way too seriously.

Now I'm starting to really love it. I've gotten to know some new and interesting people on there, and I'm usually the first person to hear every random bit of news that comes across. I have had to unfollow some people though because their tweets were just so annoying.
