Does anyone need to know what you are sending?
If what you are sending is something you would not want others to read – don’t send it.
Privileged and confidential materials do not belong on the Internet.
Don’t be lazy. The U.S. mail still works. Fax machines are not yet extinct.Anyone can post most anything. Do you want
what you are sending posted for the world to see?
Some more of Michael’s rules:

Take note and use caution:
You can be held liable for what you write and post.
Don’t think for a moment you can not be found.
DANGER-DANGER-DANGER

You must monitor your Social Media as a consumer and as a business. Do not view its as just an expense.
