An off-hand comment often may not only be seen by the person you made it to, but also to their friends and their friend's friends. Like email in the workplace, it's best to assume that everyone is going to see it. It’s easy to forget that social networks only FEEL private and insular.

I think that everyone has to remember that nothing online is a private conversation. Every company tracks online activity - it is just a matter of to what extent they track it. I know since I was responsible for this at a major multinational - 5 years ago! There are so many free and easy way to track this now - you would have to be a fool not to be careful. Remember - if you wouldn't publish it on the front of a newspaper - don't say it! That is crazy! I think that everyone has to remember that nothing online is a private conversation.

Keep employer name and other identifiable information out of the public eye. If they can draw a nexus between your blogging and a black eye for the company, it can be grounds for dismissal. Ex: You work for a conservative law firm, which you talk about on your blog (or twitter), in addition to talking about your very swinging lifestyle. It could be considered to create a negative image for the company and lead to a quite legal firing. Always keep your employer/employment situation out of your public discussions.
