Are we oversharing? I think that’s a question all of us involved in social media should ask ourselves.

And we need to serve up some honest, if cringeworthy answers.

Am I guilty of that particular sin?  I can think of a few examples. Mostly I am cautious by nature; perhaps a result of my upbringing, as I mention in this post.

This week on Inside PR 2.45,  Gini, Joe and I talk about the tendency to show-and-tell-all… and mention a few new sites that encourage us to do just that. This ties into the recent Charlie Sheen meltdown and our thoughts on whether or not media and consumers needed to give it so much attention. (I’m purposely not providing a link.)

Have a listen to the Podcast and let us know your take.
