Don't get fired over Facebook usage...

Facebook users: Watch your language. We repeat: Watch your language. Your Facebook wall could cost you employment opportunities — if you don’t use any of the privacy settings, that is.
Reputation-management outfit Reppler expanded on a startup we’ve previously covered, Social Intelligence, which performs Internet background checks on job candidates, by doing a little research of its own.
After analyzing some 20,000 Facebook profiles, Reppler found that:

• 12 percent contained derogatory language on their walls;
• The same applies for 17 percent of users under 35, while dropping to 5 percent for users over 35; and
• 38 percent of users who had derogatory language on their walls had used the offending terms themselves, while 81 percent were “victimized” by friends’ postings.
