I have always been of the opinion that the online community as a whole would be a much more pleasant place if people were not ‘hiding’ behind handles and avatars which did not link to them as a person in some substantive way directly.

Yes, yes I know, privacy concerns people cry! – I don’t think the real issue at hand, many times, is privacy. I think perhaps it would be lacking the courage of ones convictions, or perhaps of knowing that what you are doing is not right – at least in places like online games, standard web forums, comment posting, etc ( I can understand a need for anonymous posting, blogging, and providing of information in certain circumstances).

I think ones online reputation is important. I think we will see, in the next 5 years or so that it will become as much a part of life as your reputation with, say, past employers – after all you are representing who you are, just in a different location.

Anonymity on the web gives rise to all sorts of false courage. “Rights” on the internet have yet to be firmly established, but it will happen, and being abusive on the internet is no better than being abusive in person – on the other side of that monitor in front of you is someone human like you – the internet has a bad way of making many people forget that, especially those in the younger generations.

the funny thing about online “reps” is that MOST of the time it’s just an act. usually to get people’s attention to come back and see what oddball thing that person will say and/or do.
the best thing to do is not build a reputation with any negative influences despite them being positive on the net. never know when that one YouTube video may come back and bite you on the butt.

You should be careful of what you say and how you say it. No matter how intelligent your side of issue is, you should present it in a intelligent and say why you support your side of a issue.
Example: You could look like a jackass and damage your reputation if you say “Bush is a Idiot”. You have to give a reason why he’s a idiot, like “Some people say the Space program is a wast of money but, if We never been to Iraq, We could of gone back to the moon by now”.

I don’t feel online reputation really matters, unless the people online live near you, it won’t effect you that much if people in another country don’t like u.

I remember watching the live stream one day and you sat down and had around 500 emails, and you actually answered them all, which got a lot of respect from me. Ustream aside, a lot of people think they can do whatever they please on the internet while they hide behind a username and people dont see their real selves. I’ve always been irritated by people who take advantage of this, and I was really amused when you pointed out that online morons and real-life morons as well.

Also, I have heard that colleges and employers have looked at applicants’ myspaces before, but I don’t know if this is true. Whether it is or not, most people use their myspaces to display to the world what they definitely wouldn’t want their parents to see. They would be a lot better off if they watched your video!

Away to make your reputation better online youtube , myspace , facebook , ustream etc; is to share your personal hobbies and intrests. Make your personality shine and show what is unique about you. Example: On myspace never copy anyones style unless you want to. Just keep your own personality and make videos and talk about your hobbies.

yes i completely agree. the way you act online has a direct effect on how someone will interpret your personality. When online i try to state my opinion, but i try to not make it such a bold or biased opinion that would attract haters. Staying neutral and reaching out to all types of people is key for a great online reputation.
