Always think first before putting any personal info out there - we're definitely in an era of information sharing, but don't go overboard!

These are some interesting quandaries regarding protocol. I'm not sure I have the answer, but have observed similar things and I know these are topics we have to think through. Maybe the standard should be that 100% of a command is expected to "friend" each other. Or maybe there is some updated version of "Calls," a practice captured on page 102 of the Naval Officer's Guide. This was the practice of junior officers and their spouses paying formal at-home calls on the CO and other officers of the command. After the "Call", the JO leaves a calling card (not business card). Those "Calls" were expected to be returned within two weeks. Maybe the online version is the junior is expected to "friend" all others in the command and all others will friend back within two hours. That type of approach might generate more value for commands since it will create more of a critical mass. Cheers, Bob Joel I sure am glad to have made your online acquaintance and appreciate the thoughts on all these issues.

I wear many hats, and one of them is military. Recently, I have had to the time to start pushing social media tools as a way of interacting with the Navy's Information Professional community. But almost immediately, some quandaries have come up. First and foremost: protocol. How do you set the ground rules for "friending" subordinates or superiors? If a senior officer "friends" a junior officer (JO), the JO might feel compelled to accept the offer. Likewise, there might be a perception that JOs trying to friend a senior officer are "sucking up." I have tried to set the ground rules by stating that there are no expectations either way and that this was all voluntary. But I'm not sure everyone believes it at face value. What are your thoughts? How do we get honest and face-value out of these tools? //Joel Bob,
