Xeni on CNN Showbiz Tonight: TMI syndrome


Today's edition of the CNN Headline News program "
Showbiz Tonight" will include a segment on the tendency many have to share way more personal / icky / inappropriate details via online communications than they would face-to-face or via phone. You know -- like when you're surfing a business networking service online and you see "Harvard MFA seeking CFO role" "makes excellent vegan burritos", and "likes BDSM play" all in the same user profile. Also, the cc: field is not always your friend, and some things are better left unblogged. Airs at 7/11pm ET, 4/8pm PT. Here's a related article by Olivia Barker from USA Today: link.
