"One of the most interesting results of this study is that this difference between expectations and reality has led over a quarter of the employees surveyed by Accenture to use technology that is unsupported and unsanctioned by their corporate IT departments. Almost half of all Millennials who use social networks, blogs, vlogs, or Twitter do so without support from their IT departments (and often against the IT policies of their companies)." - Daniel J. Pritchett
For me, that would be anything from Crystal Waters. At one time, Gypsy Woman and 100% Pure Love were high on the list. I just deleted them from iTunes after years of skipping them. - Louis Gray
i used to love Rhianna's Umbrella song - now its turned off as soon as it starts - Stephanie Pickett
any thing by or with Kanye West... Yes he's talented but every time he issues a statement or does an interview I want to slap the taste out of is mouth. Along that line of thinking you can throw "The Puff Daddy" (or what ever the kids are calling him now) to my needs to be slapped up list... - J. Abdul-Qahhar
I almost said no, because janitors and other people don't really deal with customers, do they? But then I remembered the lady who cleaned my hotel room. She said hi and asked if she could make my stay better. Made my feelings about Sheraton go up. So, everyone affects the brand and everyone is customer facing and everyone can affect our understanding of what the company does, or help us have a better experience with it. - Robert Scoble
Yes. It makes them easier to contact and simpler to manage. - Tyler Hurst

Robert: I'd argue that janitors and cleaning staff aren't outward-facing employees. - Kevin Fox
Kevin: I'd argue that they are. Everyone comes into contact with other human beings and they all represent the company in some way every day. If you hire great people all the way through your organization, you won't have to worry. If you hire idiots, then I'd worry about this stuff. - Robert Scoble
No. Most outward-facing employees are already outward-facing and present in the ways they need to be by default. Plastering them on a billboard for people unrelated to see, or opening them up personally for disgruntled customers to stalk... seems to be going a bit far. - abacab
I would say it depends. If you have a sales team with 100 people why not a blog for the team and then each individual member can blog. 100 blogs is maybe taking it a bit far? - Sofia
I think its should be up to the employee. - John P. Kreiss
Any question that begins with "Should Every..." I stop reading immediately. Every situation is different - Bwana
Some companies require their employees to blog, and they are measured by how many blog posts they've written per quarter. Sounds productive. - Chris White
That's true, Chris, but I seriously doubt that the employees that are required to do so are, say, tellers, clerks, cashiers or janitors. - Stupid Blogger (aka Tina)
