I have this little theory that Social Media (i.e blogs, forums an Social Networks) open up
a whole new behavioral change where it's acceptable to be a little personal, less than professional and just "off
the cuff" with thoughts comments and ideas. Facebook is the "Great Experiment" where we are all now trying
to figure out how much of our personal lives to share on Facebook and who do we allow to be friends.
It comes back to
the transparency element of social networking in that you must be transparent and real about your level of communications.
If to contrived or to rigid, it just does not work!
So, my conclusion is "About Time". We all have enought
stress in our lives and really do not need any more when it comes to communicating amongst peers. So, let's be ourselves,
be comfortable with that, recoginze everyonce in a while that we'll have friends post things that are less than appropriate
and all accept it for what it's worth.
