Should Social Networking be permited at Work?

Social networking i.e. facebook, myspace , twitter are all banded at my company.  I'm in sales and it's a great way to get to know your clients and vise versa.  What do you think?

Back in the day, i told the vice president of the company that they should use chat for customer support. He got angry with me and threw me out of his office. Years later.... :)

It'd be difficult to stop people from taking advantage of the system, but, yes, networking and chatting online are extremely fantastic tools that make it much easier to connect with clients and spread the word about your product/service/whatever.

It depends on the type of work. If Social Networking Sites can be useful for the type of work then it should be allowed but if not, then it should not be allowed.

No, I see no reason that Internet networking on personal sites should be allowed at work. It sets up too much of a personal relationship between two people which could back-fire down the road.

Even if it helps your work, it is a quick way to get distracted and I'm sure somebody in sales can easily wait until he or she gets home to social network.
