Blogging Risks and Dangers

Dangers of Blogging:

A blog is an online diary or a personal chronological Web log of thoughts published on the web. While blogging provides a humanizing effect on news and journaling, it also opens a window into our personal lives. Cyber stalking is everywhere. It allows online stalkers to prowl for victims. Very often, many bloggers have been targeted by online stalkers and become victims. In this blog, you will learn how to identify possible cyberspace risks and surf safely by taking personal responsibility.
Always remember that just because you do not have a dialogue with someone does not mean that they are not reading everything that you write. Many people merely lurk online and don't engage in comment posting, but do read what is written. Your audience could be much larger than you realize.
Internet content is timeless, and keep in mind that even if you remove content, it might be archived or syndicated. If you do not want something read, do not post it to the Internet.
