The Big Story
Why companies shouldn't police workers on social media
Companies shouldn't take action against workers who get caught up in social media gaffes using a personal account, writes Conor Friedersdorf. It's better to take a principled stand that what workers do on their own time is their own business, Friedersdorf writes. "Americans ought to be averse to the notion of companies policing the speech and thoughts of employees when they're not on the job," he writes. The Atlantic online (2/18)

Companies must clamp down on offensive social media posts
Companies don't have much room for maneuvering when employees post hate speech or discriminatory messages on social networks, because failing to discipline such workers can leave companies legally vulnerable. "You are required by law to maintain a diverse and respectful workplace," labor lawyer Nicholas Woodfield says. The Associated Press (2/18)

Don't let social media become a time suck
Companies should be mindful about how much time they devote to social media campaigns, writes Megan Totka.

It's time to rethink user metrics, says Twitter co-founder
Media coverage of Web companies mistakenly "focuses on a distorting number of metrics," such as user counts, says Evan Williams, founder of Medium and a co-founder of Twitter. What's needed are more-sophisticated metrics capable of gauging user engagement, Williams says. "We don't want to trick ourselves into optimizing for the wrong thing," he says. TechCrunch (2/18)
