The New Social Rules- Authentication is Essential

The New Social Rules - 24th November 2010

November has been non stop with Facebook launching a new service, offering email to its user base and opening more data about ourselves to a large organisation, what does this mean to The New Social Rules now?

I am looking forward to some interesting debate tomorrow with 100 people registered social media speakers from PayPal, ex Managing Director of MSN UK, Ketchum Pleon, Twitjobs and an angel investor the panel will be sharing their insights. The new rules of communication are constantly changing, social media impacts our outlook, the decisions we make now ,our future career, children and financial well being.

I urge you to take a few minute to crash through these slides on the new digital age, Tony Fish as ever has his finger on the pulse and is spot on:

'Reputation is all you have and your name is a good identity so don't abuse or loose either'

'Your digital footprint is worth more than your salary'

'Your password is the weakest point in your armour'

I will tomorrow be flying the flag for the need for communities, businesses and organisations to authenticate their users to protect not only the users but themselves.


'Don't sack the person who has the corporate login for your facebook fanpage, group, twitter accounts, linkedin profiles, until other people have access and admin rights- or you will be held hostage'
