There are risks to businesses using social media, as we discuss on the courses I give. In case you were in any doubt about this then you may like to know that US Airways, one of the largest airlines in the US with 420,000 Twitter followers have just accidentally Tweeted a photo of a naked woman. Apparently they were responding to a customer enquiry and were trying to flag the image as inappropriate but managed to tweet the picture instead. Exactly how they managed to do such a thing is not clear but I guess someone in their social media team may be taking a trip down the job center soon! You can read more about this embarrassing incident here.
Don't forget!
Check all your tweet, status updates etc. carefully before you hit the 'go'button. If someone sends you inappropriate material its probably best just to delete it and block their account.
