Businesses Struggle To Control Social Networking

Lucas123 writes "Businesses in highly regulated industries are trying to strike a balance between workers who use social networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn to communicate, and trying to satisfy federal requirements to monitor, capture, and audit all forms of electronic communications. As with instant messaging a decade ago, corporations are first blocking all access to the applications, and then considering what tools may be available to control them in the future. A cottage industry is being built around software that can not only control access to social networking websites but also ensure conversations over those websites can be stored for electronic discovery purposes."

Who the fuck said I disagreed with your original statement.

No one did. Now do you understand why you fail at reading comprehension?

My problem with you fuck wad is you think you should be taken at your word with out any supporting evidence.

Fuckwad is one word, not two.

I completely understood your original post and agreed, but I still think your a flame bate just from your attitude.

Well, knock me over with a feather! Maybe if you had spent a little more time on your original comment, instead of these hasty, poorly-formed sentences, we wouldn't be sitting here making fun of you.
