Subject: Protecting Webcor in the Blogosphere

Our companys reputation is vital to our success. Our public image
plays a key roll in our relationships with current and potential
customers, suppliers, lenders, government agencies, and
community groups. In addition, our strategic plans, financial
plans, and other confidential information need to be protected for
not only legal but competitive reasons as well. These two factors,
along with the need to ensure that company networks are not
used to transmit inappropriate materials, lead to the companys
decision to begin monitoring employee e-mail messages in 2002
and instant messages in 2004.
Trying to protect the companys important resources, monitoring
of employee blogs will begin on April 1. As with e-mail and IM, the
intent here is not to spy on anyone or discourage their
conversations in the online community but rather to ensure that
Webcor maintains a positive culture internally and a positive
reputation externally.
We also do not want to squelch legitimate and constructive
criticism within the company. If you do have a question or
concern; I encourage you to speak with your immediate
supervisor. If that conversation does not yield satisfactory
answers, please take advantage of our open-door tradition to
speak with any member of senior management.

If you have any questions about the blog monitoring effort, please
fell free to e-mail me or call me at extension 254.
