Risks of Living Digitally

The phrase "my life is an open book" has never been more apt. With facebook, twitter, internet dating and rest of your online world taking atleast 20-30% of your time in a day, it's rather easy to fall pray to the risks of living digitally. Here’s an interesting fact: Every American has, at some point, appeared naked, drunk, unconscious, rude, crude or felonious online. Okay, maybe not everyone, but surf the Net and that’s the impression you’ll get. If you're looking for a job, potential employers may be looking at your Facebook or MySpace profile. And with websites like LinkedIn, About me and nearly everyone heading towards integration, you might soon be a sorry figure. The deal with online dating sites is a known fact. Online dating sites do not typically have a way to verify if the photograph and information users post is accurate. That means that when two people meet online, they are relying solely on the photographs and information provided by the other person. Some people can upload old photographs of themselves or even photographs of other people and create appealing profiles that are fraudulent. This is why it is important to only meet potential dates in a public place, and get to know them on the dating site and by telephone prior to meeting in person.
