I do use my Facebook and Twitter account for business but make sure it doesn't come back to haunt me. For example, I had to go to London a few weeks ago, my tweet in the morning just mentioned the person I was meeting. My tweet in the night was about where I went and how good my time was. I believe this way the social networking serves its purpose while being safe. I can understand your distress.

Because while you may be careful about what you reveal about your friends, not everyone is so conscientious - or even realizes what they're doing.

On the one hand, it's kind of a cool thing to be promote something that is happening someplace. On the other hand is some serious security implications: What if I'm a father? What if I have valuable property? etc. If there's one thing that social networking is teaching, it's that every action carries a potential consequence: If my boss or clients follow me, I want to be careful about what I say about work. I always want to be careful about what might slip from me about my friends. And I certainly don't want to put anything or anyone in danger. The lesson that seems to be shaping out from all this is that social networking and the facets that make it are not as free and open as people might like to think. It's becoming something that requires increased scrutiny before posting ANYTHING. I agree: The idea of location in social networking is problematic for me also.
