clipper's remarks: I find the most interesting question as:
"the incident sparked a debate about who owns the content a user creates on a social network?"
What are codes of behaviour one should use? the borders become thinner between different (up till now at least) contexts, work, friends, spare time, game, business etc...

A Social Network Where You Can Be Too Social

For many, Facebook has become an indispensable tool for managing their social lives. But all the friending, messaging and poking on the online social network has created a hazard: using it too much.

Elizabeth Coe found out after she sent 100 friends and professional acquaintances a link to her company's Web site. She got booted.

Facebook's success also means that it must combat a growing amount of spam, bogus links and hoax messages, some propagated by malicious software that make it look like such messages are coming from friends.

Facebook also reserves the right to shut down accounts if users post fake names, write offensive messages or pull content from Facebook to post on a blog or Web site.

the incident sparked a debate about who owns the content a user creates on a social network.

Her account was reinstated after she sent multiple e-mails to Facebook.

"Being banned for 3 1/2 days felt like a lifetime," she said.

Scoopt is the world’s first commercial 'citizen journalism' agency, created specifically to connect members of the public with the mainstream media.

Scoopt was launched on July 4^th 2005 in Glasgow, Scotland, by co-founders Kyle and Jill MacRae just days before the horrific London tube bombings that put citizen journalism on the map forever.

Getty Images supplies imagery around the clock to thousands of media companies worldwide, including newspapers, magazines and broadcasters. The Getty Images team is looking to bring your newsworthy content to the press community. Its extensive sales team knows who to contact to market your pictures and videos, and understands their true value.

So now that we're part of Getty Images, we have significantly expanded the scope of Scoopt's sales reach. No other user-generated editorial content source comes close. If the media wants your picture, we'll sell it to them - and you'll get paid a royalty every time.

A-Space: Social-networking site designed for the super-secret world of spying

When you see people at the office using such Internet sites as Facebook and MySpace, you might suspect those workers are slacking off.

But that's not the case at the CIA, FBI and the National Security Agency, where bosses are encouraging their staffs to use a new social-networking site designed for the super-secret world of spying.

"It's every bit Facebook and YouTube for spies, but it's much, much more," said Michael Wertheimer, assistant deputy director of national intelligence for analysis. The program is called A-Space, and it's a social-networking site for analysts within the 16 U.S. intelligence agencies.

Instead of posting thoughts about the new Avenged Sevenfold album or Jessica Alba movie, CIA analysts could use A-Space to share information and opinion about al Qaeda movements in the Middle East or Russian naval maneuvers in the Black Sea.

The new A-Space site has been undergoing testing for months and launches officially for the nation's entire intelligence community

But that's not the case at the CIA, FBI and the National Security Agency, where bosses are encouraging their staffs to use a new social-networking site designed for the super-secret world of spying.

Encouraging participation and contribution in emergent social software platforms

I think it’s very useful and I’m with the healthcare exec that said sometimes people don’t care much what the boss thinks of them but they do care about what their peers think. The messy part is dealing with unhealthy competition and ‘fun’ taunting. (JC)

How Blogging and Social Networking Can Impact Your Job Search

Thu, 04 Sep 2008 13:29:00 GMT

Clip Source: jobsearch.about.com

Employees have been fired when their employer construed their blog posts as sharing confidential information, making inappropriate comments about the company, or both. Posting company news, pictures, and even making positive comments about a company have cost bloggers their jobs.

How about job seekers? Can having a blog, a personal web site, or an account on a social networking site impact your job search, for better or for worse? It could. One blogger posted recently that he lies in interviews. That wouldn't thrill a prospective employer if they knew about it. Another job seeker's blog mentions that she loves to party all night, drinks to excess on a regular basis, and steals on occasion. Again, not a profile that would thrill most employers.

If it's on your resume, the employer will look at it.

How to Find Statistics on Social Media

Selling management on the value of investing time and resources into building an online community using social media is a challenge, and you need all of the support you can get. One way to convey the value of corporate social media participation is to leverage published statistics about who’s using social media platforms and how they are using it. There have been a host of new studies published recently that you can use to help make the case for your own company’s involvement:

One of the most popular studies is the Universal McCann’s Social Media Research Wave 3 research report, which looked at 17,000 Internet users in 29 countries. According to this study, social media can have a dramatic impact on your brand’s reputation. “34% post opinions about products and brands on their blog and 36% think more positively about companies that have blogs.”

clipper's remarks: Chicago Tribune using twitter for citizen journalism

Clip Source: www.chicagotribune.com

Faced with the kind of story that spans hundreds of miles, the Tribune is experimenting with online citizen reporting under the watchful gaze of seasoned journalists.

But after conversing with Gulf Coast residents on the social networking site Twitter—creating the online persona "GustavReporter" to do it—I found myself with 670 followers Monday, and also a duty as the storm rolled past to pass along their factual statements and dampen falsehoods.
