Stop Facebook Wallin’

February

So a bunch of Harrison cops are in hot water for making sexual jokes on Facebook about the town supervisor, a 74-year-old woman.

The cops made the comments by posting on each other’s walls. As a five-year Facebook veteran, it is time I impart some wisdom.

I’m not a big fan of wallin’. It creates a paper trail for the entire world to see and it’s setting you up for trouble.

It’s not even about the paper trail though. It’s simple hygiene. Nothing annoys me more than looking at a wall filled with posts from one person. Keep it classy and start deleting the extra posts.

I have a rule, anytime someone posts on my wall more than once, they are required to continue the conversation with composed messages.

Oh and don’t even think about Facebook chats. To me, its like the syphilis of social networking. Its just as hard to get rid of too
