Twitter Carefully, My Dear Gurus

Dear Gurus,

You are all a wonderful and incredibly valuable part of the LifeTips community and as usual, we always encourage you to go out and spread the word about your sites, your blogs and your talent. 

On that note, I will say that I do Twitter. I am a twitterer. I tweet.  I am also an only child, so I often enjoy tweeting about how awesome and great I find myself. It's an only child thing. I encourage you to tweet about the same (Not about me! Tweet about yourselves, your experience, why you enjoy working with LifeTips and why, in general, you rule.)

But I do caution you my darlings, be very careful about tweeting about current projects and clients you are working for. 

LifeTips works very hard to protect the privacy of our clients. We do not release names or information about clients unless we get permission to do so. And to allow our gurus to tweet about clients they are working with through us would be a liability on our shoulders. We just recieved this request from one client with regard to fidning a tweet about themselves from a guru. And while the client is not mad or upset in the least, this is a matter of importance that we need to be aware of.

"Going forward, if any of the writers would like to discuss working with LifeTips, that is fine, but they probably should not mention us (the client) by name as this could give the impression that they are, in fact, an employee of ours (the client). And in that case, anything they say online about us could conceivably be associated with us. Our legal team and PR department are very fussy about that."

So I leave you with this, my fellow Twitterers. PLEASE be careful about your tweets, but tweet on!
