A Googler gets fired for blogging!

I guess Time Magazine wasn't kidding when they wrote that blogging could get you fired! Mark Gen, a Google Employee got fired this month just because company thought he was putting sensitive information over his blog 99zeros. Incidentally, Blogger is owned by Google! What an irony!

On the flip side, Mark has become a celeb overnight in the blogging community, and he is making effective use of Google's own AdSense program to make dough out of the traffic to his site. Interesting read.
