I would never dream of going on a personal social web site in normal working hours, Too busy by far and my daily social networking is restricted to meeting the odd FOC or member in a bar or cafe somewhere in Scotland. More than often it is in the workplace canteen like the BBC, Daily Record or Scotsman. However we now have our own NUJ facebook and web page fed by twitter and that has been quite successful in getting news out to members as quickly as possible. However there are plenty of people putting personal stuff up during the day, probably using company equipment. I know this because there is a growing demand for officials to advise and represent members facing diciplinary action for something they have done on facebook. Either using company time and equipment captured by the watchful eyes of IT or even abusing colleagues or clients.
It is a potential minefield and people have to be aware they are being monitored and may get caught, so spare us the wasted time and your embarassment by being careful.
