I have signed up for FaceBook under my pseudonym and under my real name; in the former I’ve had some fun, in the latter I’ve kept it reserved for networking purposes, should I ever need to look for work.

Since I keep my personal account ‘clean’, I am probably not exposing myself to the potential negative effects of a social network. Since no one ‘knows’ who is behind the pen-name, I am probably not gaining any benefit from it, either.

Call it a wash.
