Recognize the Visibility of Your Posts or manage visibilty of your facebook post

You’ve thought it through, and you want to shout to theworld how you feel about having to work overtime andduring a weekend that you had earmarked for recreational activities. You have checked and double checked, and you’ve determined that your boss isnot in your network, so you let loose on the keyboard and speak your mind. Unfortunately, you’re not home free (figuratively speaking) just yet. Being outside of your network, your boss can’t see your post directly, but if a Facebook friend who is connected with your boss comments on your status update—even just to say “I sympathize”— your boss may be able to click on the link through the friend and see your post. Go ahead, be social. Share your trials and tribulations with your growing network of adoring followers. But for your own safety, keep one essential rule in mind: Never post anything online that you wouldn’t be comfortable having everyone you know see—because eventually they probably will see it.
