Office Enterprise 2007 blog facebooktwitter

* also known as "Why I now use Twitter." I’m an avid Facebook user … so much that most of my social sphere centers around the site. The downside is that I’m a personal user of Facebook … who also happens to use Facebook at work. Hmm. Dilemma. The Seattle Times recently republished an article from the Orlando Sentinel - Facebook, work collide - that talks about the marriage of Facebook and business networking. Definitely worth a read if you are trying to find your Facebook boundaries. For me to tackle this problem, I put a strategy around my “friending.” First, I always had a rule that to see any part of my profile, you have to be my friend. Just being part of my network didn’t cut it. To start the cleansing, I pulled a list of all my current friends and dropped them in a spreadsheet. Yes, I’m a geek. I then categorized them into 4 buckets: 1) close personal friends, 2) peripheral friends, 3) work / professional friends and acquaintances,Office Enterprise 2007, and 4) people I haven’t met in person. I gave Group 1 full access to my profile. Groups 2 and 3 got limited access (can’t see my status, contact info,Office 2010 Key, or pictures, etc). Group 4 got de-friended. Sorry. I had the draw the line somewhere. I’ve really enjoyed this set-up. Now, when I update about how I’m making jelloshots for a party,Office Professional 2007 Product Key, my Director can’t see it. And I feel like I enjoy Facebook all that much more now. The one remaining dilemma was what to do with all those people who were “virtual” contacts, but not friends or real-world acquaintances. Since I drew a line, I had to stick with it, and I now only friend people who fall into categories 1 -3. So before you decide to add me on Facebook, please be sure to re-read the above. If I have never met you in person (or haven’t corresponded with you in years), I probably won’t add you as a friend. I'm not afraid to use the "ignore" button. To reconnect with my professional network (and to scratch a tiny itch since I don't blog outside of JobsBlog any longer),Windows 7 Professional Product Key, I decided to join Twitter earlier this week. I’m really enjoying it, and I think I’ve found a great solution to stay in touch with my professional circle without letting everyone know when I’m making jelloshots ... or what my favorite resume tips are. If you want to follow me on Twitter, I plan to mostly tweet about marketing, social media, technical recruiting, and the developer community. While I won’t accept tweet resumes,Office Standard 2007 Sale, I do like to find new people to follow. gretchen
