Actually, it's not.
The Toronto Star did a survey a while back and found that a vast majority of corporations block all forms of social media.


While F-B was not specified, it is a social site.

I do not believe it to be speculation to extrapolate to include, at least, the States. Especially, with all the posts I've seen stating that they can't get there from there.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not denigrating social media (I actually subscribe to a lot of them; I have FaceBook, LinkdIn & Twitter active on my BlackBerry Torch [9800] all the time.
What I don't understand is why choose a channel that is likely blocked?

But, I have no intention of making this thread into another drawn out argument -- you are obviously successful with your product and dissemination of information.

But, I will do something I don't normally do.
I shall volunteer to conduct a straw poll, open until Friday @ 1800 EST (Canada).

To not clutter this list, and my usual inbox, io have created a (throw away) e-mail account for this purpose.

If you wish to participate in the survey, send your response to [email protected].

The survey says:

Does your company block access to:
1. Social Media, in general?
2. FaceBook, specifically?
