Handing comments over to Facebook is a double-edged sword

When Facebook launched the ability to embed Facebook comments on third-party websites, a lot of publishers saw it as a life-saver: not only would it improve traffic by exposing their content to others on the social network, but Facebook’s “real names” policy would also cut down on trolling and bad behavior. And some newspaper and media sites have seen a big traffic boost from implementing Facebook comments — including several that were profiled in a recent post at the Poynter Institute , such as the Los Angeles Times , which has credited Facebook with improving its web results. But it’s worth remembering that Facebook is not the cure for bad comments, and that handing over comments means relinquishing control over something important. In his Poynter post, Jeff Sonderman notes that the L.A. Times has noticed both a decline in name-calling and other bad behavior from online commenters , and an increase in traffic as a result of implementing Facebook comments on its blogs. http://gigaom.com/2011/08/18/handing-comments-over-to-facebook-is-a-double-edged-sword/

[Switch to the current edition of Connection »] We’ve all had our fair share of staffing disruptions over the last 12 months. From the swine flu pandemic putting our employees in quarantine, to the volcanic ash cloud leaving them stranded abroad - this is certainly a wake up call for us all to be better prepared for the unexpected. And don’t forget ‘Britain’s big freeze’ earlier this year, which has been estimated to have cost businesses around £700 million alone. Hopefully this will be the last of such events for a long time yet. Nonetheless, HR teams need to be sit down to reassess the contingency plans they already have in place. http://www.ceridian.co.uk/connection/articles/contingency-plans/
