Don’t Make My Mistakes. Always Think Before You Tweet : Zuckerberg

We had all downloaded Poke so we could try it out firsthand. Looking around, I thought it was funny that here we were, standing around the kitchen counter, and rather than speaking to one another, everyone was looking down at their phones, frantically texting and sending one another vanishing messages on the Poke app. “Say cheese!” I said, pulling out my camera. “Pretend you’re all sexting!” Everyone made funny faces, and I snapped a quick photo.
I don’t often post intimate family photos online, because I am a firm believer that you can (and should!) have meaningful relationships with people that you don’t necessarily need to broadcast out to the world all the time. I never post anything online that I wouldn’t feel comfortable having reprinted on the front page of a newspaper. And this photo was the turducken of tech photos: Facebook family, using Facebook, on Facebook.
So, I posted it to Facebook (under the friends-only privacy setting) and headed home to tuck my son into bed. I had no idea what was in store for me.
