Employers should take heed of this article and try to understand the perils of creating draconian “IT lock down” atmospheres in the workplace. What’s the point? Proving that you can bend your employee’s will? Or are you r-e-a-l-l-y worried about “time sink” activity. I am not saying employers should not have a say in worker productivity or conduct in the workplace. Instead, a thoughtful review of social media policies should be reviewed and articulated with the goal/s of  creating a fleet of champions for your firm or enterprise. Just look at how BestBuy handles customers and tech support with @Twelpforce.
