Don’t get Dooced!

Dooced is an internet expression meaning to lose one’s job or position because of “objectionable” posts on your website or blog.  And now, what you are doing online may be easier for your employers to find out because a website called Social Intelligence is here to help them!  According to their website,
Social Intelligence offers nearly real-time surveillance of employees’ online behavior [in which they may] criticize managers or coworkers on a social networking site, post questionable photos on a blog, or regularly update personal sites while on the clock.


So before sending something off to cyberspace just remember that it may land in your employee file.
