Re: [FCP-L] OT: Social media at work... ban it or embrace it?

Back when I used to work for someone we had limited honer system.
You cold do just about anything except, share files, ptp was blocked
and it was your honer and perhaps fear that you would not surf porn
sites.
These two things would put the company at liability,
ptp = illegal file sharing
Porn = Sexual harassment
Get caught, get the boot.
This of course was as long as you got your work done.
We would even have daily "Unreal Tournaments" going on during the day
for those on break.

You would have to evaluate the loss, if any, of actual work being done
by having your employees communicate or not communicate.
Both ways can have losses.
