Neb -- one of the real things I worry about for "Kids" in their 18-25 is they aren't yet being judged by anyone exactly. Drinking, or over indulging, showing your tush or boobs, the rare or frequent indiscression you blog about are cool to your friends.

Then you get your first real interview with someone you have always wanted to work for, a respected PhD in your field; a well known attorney or politician, or an agency that is teh first in your town to go Green -- whatever. And they say "Oh, I think I've seen you on my son's facebook page, drunk and hung over".

Apparently, many companies even ask for your facebook ID. I tell all my young friends to keep two accounts. One with a full name, and one with a nick name... and on that full named page, ONLY EVER write "Pictures of me in France with mom and dad"..., "Pictures of me volunteering at Habitat for Humanit" etc.
