Your cubicle has eyes!
Some workers know to keep their personal emails out of the office server, but what do you do if you are punished professionally for a blog you write at home, or for a political bumper sticker on your car? Bruce Barry, professor of management and sociology at Vanderbilt University and author of the new book Speechless: The Erosion of Free Expression in the American Workplace, looks at how companies curb free speech at the work place.
Speechless: The Erosion of Free Expression in the American Workplace is available for purchase at Amazon.com

I always warn my friends and family about blogging and video blogging (on youtube) personal views.Anyone can access that information. Including potential employers. What people don't understand is that even if the information is deleted, it will exist on back-up tapes for as long as whomever owns the tapes feels like it.
Some day there will be a google our children can use to dig up old private info.
