What to Keep, What to Delete???

After being on CBS 2 news both Monday night and Wednesday morning, there were many things that made me rethink the items that I post to the Web.

When I discovered that Facebook was going to keep our pictures, status updates, notes and other personal items. I was concerned that it may impact how future potential employers may view me.

I never really thought about that until this past Monday night, when I realized that I will soon be looking for a job and I wouldn’t want an employer to not hire me due to the pictures I have up or what my friends post on my wall.

Also, I realized that if you are going to direct quote someone in print for something that they said on the air make sure it makes sense. In the article written on the CBS 2 Website, I was quoted saying, “It definitely makes me think twice about all the pictures I have up there now, even, let alone any new pictures that I could put up.”

This quote reads incorrectly, to me it just doesn’t even make any sense. It made sense when watching the video but if you do not watch the video, it just makes no sense.

After having the experience to be on CBS 2, I realized that there are many things that go into transforming a broadcast story into a print story to the Web; it’s not just taking quotes and putting them into Web page.
