Social Media Overshare
 
Social media is the most powerful media when you want to share the good news. Or any news at all. However, a recent survey by Barracuda Labs shows that 73% of people believe employees overshare on social media.

The same survey also found 92% of people are worried about identity theft. Grading the top social networks for privacy controls, Facebook got the worst rating with 51%. Twitter came in second with 30%.
Again there are problems faced on social media.

Anything used in excess would usually goof-up at the end. Talking about social networks then yes that is a serious concern. Information security has been one of the most posed risks for organizations as employees would usually tend to share information with their social networks hence causing a risk of data integrity over the web.

When you focus on only promoting your won business, social media becomes a spam fest. When you focus on bringing information that your prospects want to know about, you move from being a known pest to a welcomed guest.

Social media websites plays crucial part in promoting a product on web. To create brand awareness it plays crucial part in the SMO industry.

I see people oversharing on FB all the time. The worst are the pity party posts.

Also, it doesn't seem wise when people talk about going to vacation... basically advertising for a burglary.

f you've been on Facebook for more than three years, you might remember the good old days when you logged on simply to see if your roommate did something cool over the weekend. Back when status updates simply kept everyone, you know, up to date. "At first, updates were a more efficient way of sharing the normal stuff you'd talk about with friends—and really, only your friends were reading them," says media expert Steven Johnson, author of the best seller Everything Bad Is Good for You: How Today's Popular Culture Is Actually Making Us Smarter.

But then our "friend" networks mushroomed, and suddenly our news feeds were logjammed with the banal hourly banter of people we hardly knew—and they weren't just posting for their friends, but for an audience. "Paradoxically, as people's social networks have grown, they have become less cautious and more brazen," says Johnson, adding, "I think it's the shy crowd that is finding the most gleeful freedom posting on Facebook. They can say anything, stuff they've never dared talk about before! It's quite a thrill."

Behold: the birth of the Facebook overshare.

Absolutely agree with you. I have increased my traffic only with the help of social media.
