Many local netizens would have, by now, heard of the 'wee-wee' saga. The perils of blogging are very real and I wouldn't want to be in that RJC girl's shoes right now. So always remember the one and only rule in blogging...... BE NICE!
Actually, it is a very simple rule, a 'common sense' rule. Just watch what you blog! Don't insult anyone, don't be abusive, don't be obscene, don't attack people personally and avoid inflammatory topics. It's ok to disagree, provided your tone is respectful. If in doubt, it's best you 'sleep on it' before publishing. This is not a matter of censorship. It's a matter of giving mature thought to each post.
You are publishing to a world audience. You publish not just today, but for the rest of your life because even if you shut down your blog, the posts can come back to haunt you. Things that you blog today can be incredibly damaging to your professional career and/or personal life years down the road. The world will judge you and not always fairly. Be prepared for the consequences and to accept the responsibility for each post you choose to publish. Shivers!!
