Sometimes, we can get so caught up in writing a blog post that we may start saying something personal (or negative) about a member of our family, a friend, a colleague, our boss, etc . And if a search engine (like Google) archives it, we could get ourselves or the person or company we are talking about in trouble. To minimize or prevent that from happening, the LWPS team offers the following guidelines.
While you are DRAFTING you posts or sections of your profile, always save them with an Access Restriction (AR) of "Private". Then when you have completed each section of your profile or the post (or it is as complete as it is going to be for the moment), deliberate on what AR you will use.
The following links describe the purpose, value and use of the three (3) basic LWPS methods available to you to restrict access to the personal information you place in your profile sections or your posts.
- Access Restriction (AR) - "Private"; "Logged in user"
- Group Access Restriction (GAR)
- Private or moderated communities
We recommend that you create a post in your personal blog where you keep links to posts containing key information about yourself and add a link there to this post for future reference by COPYing then PASTEing the following red line into that post:
