“Watch what you say online”—you never know how it is being perceived. What’s even worse is when people try to justify their actions with more hate mongering and then act as if they did nothing wrong. If my feelings are hurt by something you’ve said, you should address that in a POSITIVE WAY instead of turning it around and making tme feel as if you had every right to say what you did—and who gives a damn about how I may feel about it.

I’m venting because of something that happened involving this subject matter.

It’s not just Twitter and social sites where you have to be careful. Once put out into Cyberspace anything you have sent there lives there in infamy forever! This has been true from the beginning of the web.

If you think it’s private, think again, and always consider who might be watching, reading or listening.

It is. Strangers don’t know you as well as your close ones, and a simple, unintentional joke might turn out ugly and there goes the reputation created for years in the business.

Conversation via words (typing), even through MSN, at times could be misleading, and cause misunderstanding. Choose the words carefully as well, that’s my experience.
