There is some validity to it -- people don't say things at work that they might say in a bar. That being said there's also the Jersey Shore generation.
So if people think that their company/boss might be watching, they will
*drumroll*
limit their speech
The thing I've hated about Facebook is that they insist that there is no difference between the bar and the workplace. I have a large employer that has set their own Facebook and is encouraging all of us to join in.
*headdesk*
I need a place to vent about politics, swap recipes and talk about slash that is not the office
I don't know, it seems to me that a lot of the new web paradigms are effectively limiting speech instead of enabling it.
