• Social networking is the practice of expanding the number of one's business and/or social contacts by making connections through individuals. 

• Using the Internet to promote such connections is now fully recognized and exploited, through Web‐based groups established for that purpose.

• Based on the six degrees of separation concept

Where is it Being Used in Business?"It was never very clear to us who the authoritative sources were, who was good at solving problems. Now we can see a lot of that because we're starting to see patterns emerge:

•Who follows whom•Who's the good source of questions•Who's the good source of answers

Why is This an Important Issue for Records Managers?

• Do these tools create records? • How do we manage the records these tools create?

• Are they discoverable?

Example: Florida Judges and Lawyers

• Cannot “friend” on Facebook• But does not necessarily stop “Friend” behavior.

• Can you say “iPhone” or “Blackberry”?

Social Media Enhances Business Activity…

• And it’s free• You should set policies, and make everyone understand the implications of use.

• You should ensure that company social media pages are preserved in their native format, with the ability to replay as if they were live. • Video• Links• Flash, et al

• Simple screenshots are not accepted in regulatory situations. • You must be able to prove the exact content of your social media pages from any given date.

Monitor the Use of the Tools

• Any tool used on business time on a business computer is subject to monitoring and review.

• According to Gartner  60% of firms will have programs in place to monitor social media accounts, including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and LinkedIn, for security breaches and data leaks.

• But don’t cross the line: If a manager views a public and open Facebook profile to determine the sexuality or marital status of an employee that would violate employment privacy and equal opportunity laws

Remember to Educate on Security and Privacy

• These tools all have security and privacy settings.

• Teach people how to use them.

Plan for Discovery• Take snapshots of posts on Facebook and Twitter on a periodic basis

• May be able to be done through RSS feeds but monitoring is still required.

• Facebook posts can be deleted but are they destroyed?

Challenge ‐Declaration

• Declaration: What is a social media record? Social Media content is difficult to define as a record. Agencies are still grappling with records management for email, much less wikis and blogs. 

• Social media content that is record material must be identified as such by system users if there is no automation support for records identification (largely absent from current social media applications).

• Social media systems do not generally lend themselves to handling system content as business records that may require separate handling and application of business rules.

Challenge ‐ Capture• Social Media Capture : Much of social media content is in the public domain and, therefore, not under control of an agency or company causing difficulty in capturing content.

Challenge ‐Metadata• Social Media Metadata: Applying metadata to tag social media content for retrieval is difficult. Many agencies are using manual methods of adding metadata for social media content.

• Can you say #hashtag?

Challenge ‐Disposition• Social Media Scheduling/ Disposition: Lack of control of the content makes scheduling and disposition of records difficult.

Challenge ‐ Education

• Staffing and Education: Education is needed to implement a successful social media records policy.

Example: Christou v. Beatport LLC• The plaintiffs alleged that the defendants attempted to deter “A‐list” disc jockeys from playing at their competing nightclub.

• The plaintiffs moved for spoliation sanctions after learning that the defendants failed to disclose any text messages from a key defendant’s cell phone in response to the first discovery request.

• The defendants had a duty to preserve the information.• Lesson Learned: Include text messages in the body of records and information being preserved for litigation. 

• References: • Policy Design for Managing Electronic Messages (ANSI/ARMA 19‐2012)• Procedures and Issues for Managing Electronic Messages as Records

Example: PhoneDog vs Kravitz• Question:  Who owns a company’s Twitter followers?• Double‐lawsuit, with blogger Noah Kravitz, and tech blog PhoneDog, in a legal battle over a Twitter account.

• Kravitz took PhoneDog to court over his share of the site’s advertising revenue. 

• PhoneDog countersued, taking former editor‐in‐chief to court for the ownership of his Twitter account, which he started during his employment at the blog.

• Kravitz took his PhoneDog Twitter account and changed the tag name to @NoahKravitz

Lessons Learned• Social Media Policy should deal with:

• Ownership of account• Rights to business content• Transfer of control of corporate account 

• Intellectual Property Rights Need to be Clarified Up Front• Specify who owns user‐generated content.• Who has authority to speak for the organization?

Human Resources Needs to Take Care• Vetting potential employees based on social media can be illegal especially if searching for personal info.• Asking for a Twitter or Facebook password is illegal in some states.• Potential for discrimination lawsuit based on age, sex, etc.

• Should conduct consistent searches for all applicants.• Maybe use a third‐party to do investigation

• Maintain records of all searches.

Example: Mailhoit vs Home Depot• Request for Plaintiff’s Facebook, Twitter and other social networking accounts was overly broad.

• Need to be focused on specific communications with other employees and the company.

• Bottom Line:  Social Media is ESI so it should be treated that way.

Example: Lester vs Allied Concrete Company• Wrongful death suit• Driver was guilty and suit was for damages• Plaintiffs initially awarded $10M• Defense cited spoliation of Facebook‐based evidence• Adverse inference cited against plaintiff’s lawyers of over $700,000 because they advised client to “clean up Facebookpage” after lawsuit was in progress.

• Lesson: Facebook pages are evidence.• If you want to be looked at in a good light, make sure your Facebook page is “cleaned up” all the time.

Example: Government Agencies Not Immune

• Orange County, Fl County Commissioners and Mayor and Lobbyists texting in relation to Sick Day Legislations

• Deleted text messages• Text messages are already covered under Florida’s Sunshine Law.

• Texts needed to be recovered.• Follow‐up: Texting and Voicemail ban between lobbyists and commissioners proposed

Best Practice ‐ Communication

• Develop communications between social media team and records management: An active team should include RM staff, web managers, social media managers, IT staff, and perhaps other relevant stakeholders is needed.

Best Practice ‐ Policies• Develop social media policies making use of resources for help: Organizations use multiple information resources when creating policy and implementing processes that model best practices in the use of social media with respect to recordkeeping.

Best Practice ‐Governance• Define roles and responsibilities: A cross‐organizational unit whose primary role is to aid in understanding and guiding agencies or companies in the use of social media and records implications must include identification of roles and responsibilities.

Best Practice – Use Technology• Implement records management for social media as part of ECM: An ECM system (ECMS) for records management should include social media and should have requirements for capturing, tagging with metadata, and scheduling the content.

Keep on the Lookout for New Features in ERM

• ERM software vendors are adding support for social networking features ‐ slowly.

• Have you upgraded your ERM software lately???.

Implement Internal Enterprise Versions of Social Networking

• Addresses the need for collaboration and knowledge management and keeps information within the firewall of the organization.

• Not free but more secure and linked to business process.

Who is Really Doing This?• Vendors Say They Can Manage But To What Degree Depends on the Approach

• Some info lies in other media e.g. Facebook info in texts, e‐mails, etc.

• Archiving Tweets – Library of Congress• What’s Worth Keeping and What Is Not? Still a Relevant Question?
