Are you comfortable with people Googling you anywhere anytime?
It doesn't really matter how you feel about it because they can! This has become part of any business process.
Whether you are about to enter into a partnership or a business deal as a service provider or even applying for a job, an online search will be conducted.
Do the exercise: Google yourself! What do the results reveal?
A huge concern of mine are the status updates which learners and students are posting online.
It won't be long till these same students enter the job market. Are their online profiles ready to be scrutinised?

Ask yourself the question: "How would I like to be seen online?"
So next time somebody wants to know more about you, you can confidently say Google Me!
