Disclaim This!
Robert Scoble: I also know of at least one IBM blog (that I won’t name, cause it’s one of my favorites to read) that has broken at least one of these guidelines. I wonder what kind of conflict that’ll cause over time?
One of my early managers once shared with me the following piece of advice: if you don’t get your hand slapped at least twice a year, you aren’t pushing the boundaries hard enough.
Apparently, my employer wants me to create a disclaimer. I’d like one that expresses something like the following:
The opinions expressed here represent the thoughts of 0.0003% of the employees of IBM. Before taking it as anything more than that, you might want to consider checking with the other 99.9997% of the employees first.
But even that seems too wordy for my tastes. I’m looking for suggestions.
