Social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook offer opportunites to post a host of personal and professional experiences, information, and even photos. You can also block information and make it available only to those you select to be able to view what you have posted.
LinkedIn is a social networking site for professionals and provides an opportunity for them to connect and communicate with people working in specific fields of interest. LinkedIn also offers an opportunity to connect with people who know people you know in your network. As social networking sites grow, it becomes more important than ever for those posting on these sites to do so with care by being cautious not to divulge information that might be harmful in your college and/or job search efforts.
