Blogging Guidelines

When you press PUBLISH, what you have written is instantly
visible all around the world. Make sure you think carefully about what you write in blogs and in comments and always follow these rules.

BE SAFE:
· Do not use your last name.
· Don’t be specific when writing about yourself. eg. Say: “I play
basketball with a local team” rather than “I play for the Oshkosh Stars”.
· Never give anyone your address, email address or phone number. You can keep in touch through the blog.
· Do not post photos of others.

BE RESPECTFUL
· Don’t say anything that might be offensive to someone else.
· Be considerate of others. When commenting, show others that you have read what they have written rather than just saying “great job”.
· Be open to other people’s opinions, but be prepared to discuss
your own position if you don’t agree.

BE LITERATE:
· You know about good grammar, spelling and punctuation. Apply it!
· Save abbreviations and shortcuts for MSN and texting.
· You are broadcasting yourself to the world. Present yourself and our page in the best possible light.
