Learning how to deal with difficult results is something we can all work on as someday something we said or did will be raised at an inappropriate time. It will happen to many of us. On the other hand getting people to talk about us and our business is a vital part of marketing.

But I agree that you really have to be careful about how you appear online, whether you're a job-seeker or a full blown organization. A friend of mine was told by someone else, a potential employer, that when they searched their name it brought up strange articles. Even though it was really embarrassing, they really appreciated it and it helped my friend begin to build a new, more professional online appearance.

Have to disagree with you on this one, Jeff. I personally know way more than 100 people through various social media channels. If one integrates online and offline properly and consistently, this is not difficult. But in general, good information and a good reminder to be cautious. “Once you have more than say 100 followers on Twitter, Facebook or any other site your are not going to know all of them personally.”

I hate to see people vent on Facebook or Twitter . . . it is inappropriate, and really, who's your beef with? The person you're complaining about is probably NOT reading your feed, or you could have had an adult conversation. As for Scots Guardsman Cameron Reilly, what was he thinking?? That the bride-to-be had lookers on on her mind? That they were important in her grand scheme. Surely not. He wasn't thinking. . . .
