Raising the Bar with Mark-Paul Gosselaar .

~Insert quick recap here. I am in partnership with TNT and I am able to review great shows before you see them. I was able to ask Mark-Paul Gosselaar a question on Friday. Here's how that went.~

Raising the Bar has an episode this week that is going to touch the Internet Social Group Loving People. It touched me and made me think. THIS BLOG POST CONTAINS NO SPOILERS!!!!

This weeks episode is about a man that takes an innocent photo of his son getting out of the tub and puts it on his social network group. Someone is able to steal the photo and sell as porn.

Since I have several blogs and a member of Facebook, a social network group, I put my life out there for you to see. Comment on and even laugh about. I post pictures of my children. I post pictures of myself. Does that make me irresponsible? No. I can tell you why. I only use "appropriate photos." I would never show my kids playing naked in the pool or bathtub. I wouldn't even show you a picture of me naked because you'd run away screaming! ha ha!

I have several counters on all the blogs. I know who is reading the blog. Every computer has a certain IP address and stat counters show those. I look at the counters every couple days. If I see a high count of clicks that day I can see what post they are reading and who is looking at it. It is the Internet people and you are very traceable. I wasn't sure if you realized that. Now you know.

I guess it just means using your common sense when you go post a picture.

On Friday I was able to join in on a phone conference with Mark-Paul Gosselaar. There were lots of cool mom bloggers on the call with me. Pretty amazing if you ask me. He sounded so cute and was so polite! My Saved By the Bell friends were envious of me!!! :)



I was able to ask my question first. Here is what I asked him:

I know you are a parent and I wanted to ask--how did the case in next weeks episode affect how you feel about social networks like Facebook and Myspace?

Mark-Paul answered like any parent. He was in shock that something like that could happen. He wondered what pictures had been posted of his children, no matter how innocent they have been.

I know this story is purely fiction but it makes parents think of what could happen.

I really love Raising the Bar! If you catch this weeks show please come back and comment with your opinion!!! I'd enjoy talking with my readers about this topic!
