This is kind of interesting - having students learn about what happens to the information you share online by having them "stalk" a well-known personality, in this case, Will Richardson. I can only imagine what they would find if they stalked me. The horror. Would they find stuff that would embarrass me? Probably. That would cause someone not to hire me? Almost certainly! That I regret? Not a word of it. Because, you see, that's the other side of the lesson - you can find out this information, but it's a lot harder to actually harm me (and probably easier if you did it the old fashioned way).
