"I written here numerous times about the danger of putting too much out there on the internet when you&amp;#039;re in the middle of divorce negotiations (says the blogger in the middle of a divorce negotiation...). It&amp;#039;s a challenge for me because I&amp;#039;m paid to talk about myself, to some degree, but I&amp;#039;m cognizant every time I put a word anywhere - here, Facebook, Twitter, that it could haunt me later if I&amp;#039;m not careful. It was no suprise for me to see this subject addressed by Jeff Landers over at Forbes magazine. Jeff is a Divorce Financial Strategist,and the author of the new book, Divorce: Think Financially, Not Emotionally \u2013 What Women Need To Know About Securing Their Financial Future Before, During, And After Divorce. In his article, he points out that the internet is a prime source of investigative tips for any lawyer trying to dig up some dirt. In addition to your online activity, you need to keep an eye on your emails and text messages (both to and about your former spouse). A lot of those are now admissible as evidence in court.  I guess it all boils down to the first rule of internet safety (which I have drilled and drilled into my daughter&amp;#039;s head): Don&amp;#039;t write or post anything anywhere that you don&amp;#039;t want everyone in the whole world to know and be able to see until the end of time. Jeff also featured this very informative infographic (courtesy of lawyers.com) about the effect of social media on divorce proceedings. It&amp;#039;s a real eye-opener! Did you know that a staggering 66% of online divorce evidence comes from Facebook alone? Yikes.  Thank goodness the most embarrassing thing I&amp;#039;ve got on my personal Facebook account is a video of me singing showtunes to my cat. Don&amp;#039;t judge me. I&amp;#039;ve known entirely too many people who put way too much of their personal lives out there in cyberspace. Do you think people are too careless? Especially when they&amp;#039;re negotiating divorce or child custody arrangements and need to be more concerned with their privacy? "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
