In an age of mass narcissism and more personal information being spread among dozens of mediums than ever before, remember, you never know who is “listening”.  Give heed to the story of @theconner (a Twitter name) and his fateful 140 character tweet.  Upon being offered a job from Cisco, he (or she?) sent out this tweet:

“Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose and hating the work”

Someone at Cisco saw the tweet and now the job offer may be in jeopardy.  So remember folks to be mindful what you put on your social networks and blogs.  You never know who will be watching/reading.  Despite my PSA, I will continue to vlog for you.  It’s a risk I’m willing to take.  By the time I attempt to run for public office, maybe my YouTube antics won’t be so hurtful in a smear campaign?
