Anyone here use Twitter?

[Bobby+Umit 161]

Well - there was one guy who scored a great job at Cisco, tweeted about it (how he had to work for crummy cisco, but the pay was good) - and recieved a tweet back that Cisco knows the internet.

He didn't get the job.

Then there was that guy who sent an email saying he had to go to a funeral (on halloween), but actually went to a party, posted a picture of himself in a "fairy" outfit, and the boss found it.

The boss emailed it to the company with "#######?"

Cisco Tweet

Fairy guy

So - be careful what you post...

Again it comes down to what you post. I could tell you a story from last week that had I been stupid could have landed my in hot water. I didn't post it, and am even reluctant to give details now. You never know! They're out there.

I doubt that guy was serious when he said that he hates working in CISCO. He's just saying that to be obnoxious. They pay ridiculously well there.

I think Twitter limits the length of the message, so it's not the best way to share something with people unless it's brief or superficial.

I guess if you mean how we socialize in the digital age, like what we are doing now. If we didn't have these avenues of communication though, we'd be stuck with talking to our office mates.

God help me!! Ooops, I hope my office mates dont read this and tell my boss

I was referring to the brief and superficial part, and that it was in the digital age.

I've notice it happening on Facebook - people will state what they are about to do. I don't have an opinion either way on it, but sure is something different from normal office chatter.

My boss is on facebook so I am always careful with that, I dont even log in during work hours just in case. (she was added before she was my boss)

That part of Facebook is troubling. Whenever you are online, everyone on your list knows...so you can't be inconspicuous.

[Sofiyya 1,687]

Myspace, Facebook are two social networking sites that should be used sparingly. If you work in a high profile job, it's best to delete your profile. Or, if you are applying for any job that requires integrity don't even think of using myspace or facebook.

I second that. That's why I'm not on any of those.

Good thing I have a job of ill repute!

I've been hearing about twitter in the news. So let me get this straight...you just have a profile and you post updates on what your doing? And people can respond back.

So it's similar to myspace, facebook, friendster, etc? or no?

Same here...they don't care...as long as you aren't engaging in illegal activity.
