Steve on your online presence
With social media being as prevalent as it is in today's world, you should really take a moment and pause. Think about what you are showcasing to the world. Is it really the best idea to update that status about how "big brother" is coming down on you? Or should you be posting that picture with all of the illicit activity occurring in the background? Too often, I see people throwing around information without a care in the world as to where it is really going.
Online privacy is a big deal. I do not want a picture of me wearing my favorite cat sweater showing up during a job interview. Although to be honest, I don't have a favorite cat sweater, I enjoy them all equally. I just believe that less is more when it comes to what is available through Google searches of your name. So change your name on Facebook, update your privacy settings, and don't use that clever double-entendre as your Twitter name. No matter what you do though, I advise you to think things through before you hit post.
