As unconventional forms of communication (like Facebook and Twitter) become more popular as media for serious interaction, businesses will need to keep those records -- just as they should be keeping e-mail today.  <a href="http://legal-beagle.typepad.com/wrights_legal_beagle/2009/03/record-keeping-in-financial-markets-to-soar.html" rel="nofollow">http://legal-beagle.typepad.com/wrights_legal_beagle/2009/03/record-keeping-in-financial-markets-to-soar.html</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[LegalBeagle]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2009 12:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Canadian Woman Gets Fired via Facebook]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll go ahead and label this as boring.

Not that we are any better here in the US, but if you tried that in many states, the boss would be the one in trouble for violating labor laws, but times change and people have become much ruder and impersonal. Many things are changing in terms of what is and should be done regarding ehtics, morals, and ways of treating people, and most of them are crap. We are declining as a civilized race and there appears to be no stopping it. This woman, depending on the laws in Canada, may have a lawsuit.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[psyops3000]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2009 10:52AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Canadian Woman Gets Fired via Facebook]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</guid><description><![CDATA[The boss is probably a control freak or in between masterbating to facebook images snoops on employees because they have no life!!!  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[goldennorse82]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2009 2:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Canadian Woman Gets Fired via Facebook]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/08/canadian-woman-gets-fired-via-facebook/</guid><description><![CDATA[That's a load of crap.  You NEVER discuss disciplinary action or work with an employee that is not on the clock.  Whether it be termination or correction, it is the same as working off the clock and is illegal at least in the US.  It is unprofessional and frankly the woman's boss is a coward that he couldn't face his employee to do what needed to be done.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[jessica]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 9th 2009 1:46PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
