Life vs. The Panopticon - “controlling your public appearance”
Another article about “controlling your public appearance”. The article talks about google caches, and the new facebook privacy options for public profiles, and the general idea of the new all-seeing eye. That’s some positive education.
The article also advocates personal branding, hearkening back to Fast Company and the bubble, saying if you don’t do this effectively, you don’t “get it.” Hmm. Is there such a thing as self-marketing incorrectly? I mean, if you’re shooting for a new job or a place in politics maybe, but if you’re just living your life as you want can you really be that far off base? (Am I a huge nerd for saying that?)
