We share so many details of our everyday lives online, but where should we draw the line on that which we share about our online buddies, our family, and ourselves?

Below are ten things we should not share on social media
Never Post these 10 Things on Social Media


1. Your Present Place

Many people don’t recognize that when they post a tweet or a status update, they may also be revealing their present location.
