In EdgeTheory Conversation 6, Louis Gray and Chris Saad talk about message framing, and our potential loss of authenticity through selective sharing.

In the social Web, we talk a lot about being transparent and open. But many of us are limiting what we say online to a specific topic. We’re sharing links and associating with people who share our viewpoints, and possibly avoiding hot-buttons like politics, in favor of talking about technology and tools. Is this the right thing to do, or have we gone too far in terms of being willing to share who we really are?
