A simple Corporate Social Media Policy for your company
So we have recently been looking into a Social Media Policy for our company. 
We wanted to ensure we had a simple, non-complex, and non-legal style policy that everyone could understand and engage with.
In the interests of our customers and readers, we figured it would be good to share this.

Lots of corporate IT departments are asking themselves whether or not to block social media (aka Enterprise 2.0) applications like Facebook, Twitter, Skype, etc. What they often don’t realize is that they can safely enable these applications through the use of smart policies. That way employees can take advantage of the benefits of these powerful platforms, while risky or counterproductive features can be selectively blocked! Palo Alto Networks has put together a great whitepaper to help you understand how this new firewall technology works. It’s called “To Block or Not. Is That the Question?” and you can find it here: http://bit.ly/d2NZRp. Let me know what you think…kelly@briefworld.com
