Topic 2 2015

After having read through my fellow classmates argument on the pros and cons of multiple identity, I felt that I have a new perspective on this topic and how I could have done it differently. Firstly, it would be my friend Renu’s post on ‘Two identities…not a bad idea? Maybe’. She mentions about how the internet is a scary place where anyone can view informations about us.

I also understand another concern of people creating multiple online identities is the possibility of people abusing it. Continue reading →

Topic 2 has been really fun and thought-provoking! I’ve learn so much from replying what others commented on my blog as well as commenting on others! 😊 Initially, I wasn’t sure if I do prefer managing many online identities or I don’t…but now, I vote for Multiple Online Identities, but also keeping them at a professional, not too casual manner, due to privacy issues.

Comment 1 – Guo Yixin Comment 2 – Patrick Wong The debate on digital identities appears to be a rather intensive one. But I have to say that the discussions on my blogpost and those on Yixin’s and Patrick’s had led me to change my view and standpoint slightly.

Yeah, even though i do not post such funny images or snippets of myself, i do not feel comfortable when I know my bosses have access to my personal account. I also agree that showing the less serious side of us may affect on our impressions towards the higher management. Interesting. Continue reading →

The top reason why people tend to create multiple online identity is to distinguish a clear line between work and play, but have you wondered why people do that? (Credit: Google Images) The answer is simple, they do not want to show their bosses a bad impression of themselves! Clearly, comments about how ‘sucky’ their work place is, will definitely not be pleasant if their superior sees it. Continue reading →
