We had growing demamd from business users that "NEED" to use social networking. So we bought a product that intercepts and archives all communication to and from social networking sites.
99.5% of content is of personal nature. Rarely is social networking done for business outside of some internal marketing. If you saw the volume of what people did for the weekend, had for lunch, who they met, who broke up etc it would change your opinion really fast.
People want open tranparent ability to communication but don't have their conversations supervised. Unfortunately we work in a regulated industry and FINRA has deemed these corporate communications need to be monitored.
Once word got out social networking was being monitored usage has dropped to 2% of employees using it.
Leave personal activity outside of the office.
