Thing 3

Online Branding - I think it is fair to say I don't actually have one. As soon as I have time I'll look at the visual elements of my social networking sites and try colour co-coordinating. Another issue is the lack of a photograph on any networking site that I am member of, not sure why I've been very cautious about putting a photo online, but it's a fear I'll have to overcome.

Searched for myself on Google, slightly wary about what might appear, thankfully everything was of a professional nature. The first item on the search results was an Equality Impact Assessment I had carried out on Glasgow Libraries service provision to the LGBT community. Further down the list were my LinkedIn account and then this Blog, so all the type of things I would be happy about people having access to.

In summary I'm quite happy with the level of online branding I have but will have to look at updating the visuals and content of some of the pages. 

I think in future any personal information I decide to place online will be kept separate from my professional presence.
