8211; ProfileScreener.com announced today the launch of its new service that allows parents to keep tabs on their children's8217;s Myspace and Friendster profiles. ProfileScreener.com
also has a service for businesses that provides information on pre-hire and employee's8217;s Myspace and Friendster profiles.
ProfileScreener.com delivers to customers a report and an image of the child or employee's8217;s profile. The company's8217;s researchers use criteria selected by the customer to compile
the reports. Search criteria can include underage drinking, drug use, sexual activity, sexual images, illegal activity, infidelity, misrepresentation of age, placement of too much
personal information, derogatory statements about a business, and unauthorized distribution of a businesses's8217; proprietary information.
The company's8217;s co-founder, Jeffrey S. Gluck, stated that 's8220;now is the time for a service like ProfileScreener.com. The media has shined a spotlight on these social networking
sites and parents have become very concerned with their children's8217;s activities on these sites. We will inform them about what their children are posting.'s8221;
Added co-founder, Paul Farago, 's8220;safety is key when using these sites. Many children are lying about their age, posting too much personal information, and bragging about their drug
use or other dangerous illegal activity. Parents have a right to know what's8217;s going on.'s8221; The company is partly a response to the concern that revealing too much information on
these sites can make a child vulnerable to real-world attacks by predators.
ProfileScreener.com's8217;s service will also help businesses in the pre and post hiring phase. Gluck stated that 's8220;it is an asset for a business to know something about a candidate
from a source other than the candidate. Interviews are usually rehearsed and it can be hard to read people.'s8221; The company's8217;s service will assist businesses by informing them
about what the candidate is like outside the work environment. The information learned can be essential to spot a potential liability or conflict early on.
Businesses can also use the company's8217;s services to learn about current employee's8217;s profiles. Stated Farago, 's8220;our services can be an essential tool for businesses that want
to make sure that their image is not being tarnished or their proprietary information is not being revealed to the world on Myspace or Friendster by one of its employees.'s8221;
The company's8217;s services can also be used by persons to help identify infidelity and other undesirable activities.
The founders both stressed that they want to help people become informed about what is being posted on Myspace and Friendster. Their goal is to help parents safeguard their children and
businesses to protect their assets.
