VCTaskForce - Avoiding Online Suicide: Protect Your Digital Reputation March 23, 2010

"What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas." But what happens online, happens everywhere and happens forever. Your online behavior can severely affect your personal reputation, your product's image and your company's brand. New technologies for mining social networks are being used to uncover patterns of personal and corporate collusion and corruption. Related technologies for mining unstructured information are being used to promote, protect and harm personal and corporate identity.

This session of the VC Task Force's Emerging Technology Forum will highlight new technologies used analyze individual and network behavior. How are companies protecting their brands in a world in which users provide instant feedback and where good news travels leisurely but bad news is instantaneous? How can your postings online and your patterns of behavior be used against you at work or even in litigation? How do you avoid the need to commit E-uthanasia and digital suicide?
