Be Careful What You Post Online Or You’ll Get Twaxed!

Prior to his nationally broadcasted speech to high school students, US President Obama offered the following “practical political advice” according to Bloomberg:

“I want everybody here to be careful about what you post on Facebook, because in the YouTube age whatever you do, it will be pulled up again later somewhere in your life.”

This is one piece of advice everyone should take seriously. There will be a time when you will be applying for a job and the web 2.0 savvy HR person assessing your application will do a bit of research on his most recent applicant.

That will be the time when you’ll wish that you hadn’t posted those pole dancing contest pictures you and your mates took after a tour through the local pubs. And you might also wish that you hadn’t mentioned in your status update that you showed up to work hung over the next day and almost threw up over your PC keyboard.

Currently, it is getting ever more dangerous to share too much online of what should rather not be talked about.

On recently launched services such as Twaxed and Oversharers you (and anyone else) might just find that tweet that will teach you not to drink and tweet!

Or imagine your prospective employer finding this:

"try working for an ad agency... We drink 24/7 during the job... Mad Men style."
