Beware - Writing Blogs can take your job Away!

Blogging is becoming a more common phenonemon with millions of bloggers posting messages on a daily basis. Organizations have started adopting this but in some cases it can cause flury within the same organization. Few months back I heard about Microsoft firing an employee for posting some pictures on his blog, which showed Macs ordered by Microsoft. And today yet another case, Friendster fires an employee and the reason again was blog. Here is the link for the friendster gal , who got fired. http://troutgirl.com/blog/index.php?/archives/46_Shitcanned.html



Even though the posts for which she was fired don't look damaging for the company, but writing anything about your corporation, please first check your corporation policy. A big brother might be watching you!
