Weaving Webs

Everything can be hacked. That's the stance I take in reference to the web. The web is a nice place no doubt and it can do no harm. But what happens when other users of the web choose to weave their own webs in order to get the information or pics they need to get dirt on you.

Sorry, but appearing on a porn site or having persons slander me online is not the sort of fame I desire. What I think we fail to realize is that it doesn't matter how many times Facebook, Twitter or any of those social-networking sites revamp the security settings on the profile, one thing is always true ... they can be hacked, they can be circumvented, they can be manipulated, they can be duplicated, they can and will embarrass.
Social networking is good but not at the expense of reputation. Use of the web should not call into questions intentions.

In weaving our web to be sociable we must be careful that we do not weave a web which the end and the beginning is obscured. So forgive me for commenting when your actions on a social site will hinder your progress and where your desire to be cool outweighs common sense and falls second to being cool.


Enjoy the web but be careful of the webs you weave.
