Collision of worlds in Facebook
Warning: I am a Seinfeld Junkie.
As other Seinfeld junkies will know, when George gets engaged to Susan, Elaine gets friendly to Susan. George is worried that his worlds will collide and Independent George will collide with relationship George.
I think my worlds are going to collide in Facebook.
You tend to maintain a different personality with your colleagues at work, a different one for family and probably a different one with friends.
This problem is non existent with LinkedIn, since it tends to be the professional world. I mean when do you use LinkedIn? After you get laid-off or just before that. You don’t add your Uncle to LinkedIn and try to figure out what he is doing on a daily basis.
Whereas with Facebook, these worlds co-exist. And I wonder if they are going to collide with each other. I have already deleted comments from my relatives a couple of times so they don’t bleed into my other worlds.
Am I the only one facing this? Is anyone else going through this?

I guess I belong to the minority here – but facebook works for teens who have little of other facets of life!
Everybody on their list is a friend and they have no qualms about saying exactly how they feel, but as you
learn to distinguish a professional relationship from a non-professional one, you hit the glitch and good old mail serves better at communicating.
I don;t feel my worlds really collide on facebook. If I feel that then i just use mails for cimmunicating. At other times, I don;t mind if friends/relations/colleagues get to see my other sides. U never know they might get to see an interesting side of me that they never knew existed
