I was watching Kids TV show this morning, and there was a warning for all kids to think before they post anything on the internet. This is also a reminder to all because whatever you post on the internet is for public viewing. Do not be naive and simplistic to think that everyone out there in the cyberspace are good people. There were kids who killed themselves because they were bullied and there were kids who find their pictures being hogged around in the internet. Adults too suffer the same consequences.
Newly graduated students should pay more attention to what they write because potential employers do scan the internet to find out more about their candidates. Big companies HR too scan their employees background and may result the employees being fired or demoted or reprimanded.
Bloggers who got carried away telling their company's secrets or discussing the company's operations may end up in hot soup.
Some bloggers opened up their chests, letting out their frustrations on family and spouses may find themselves being judged. Think, the blogging world is so very small, what you write may hurt those you love as well as yourselves.
There are sites that are created solely to criticize other blogs and blog owners to the point of blogs assassinations. Such blogs, although meant to be humorous, yet they hurt. There are of course character mutilations as well as condemnations.
So, people, think before you post.
Just a reminder

Mutiara, I blog hop from Kak Ezza and found you. I hope you don't mind I add your link in my blog. Seronok baca blog you and I really like your sayuran.
Welcome to my blog Zue. Go ahead, i don't mind. I do not update my blog regularly. I blog when I have the mood. My blog has no theme, so it is not very interesting.
The truth about Internet is that it has permanent memory. As it is with it, the world has become a much smaller space.
In future, potential employer may not need to get referees from past employers. All they need is just to look up the Net.
Scary, isn't it?
agree with your post AM.
sal - one story - a manager was sent off to a smaller branch in a smaller and quiet city. he was bored and started writing in his blog abt how boring the town was. people started writing to his headoffice - esok tu masuk papers and kena sack.
