I have to agree with MILPILOT, I don't think it's wise to do this. As much as I would like to stay in touch, I make it a point not to post any personal information on any website or forum. Remember, everyone is looking, and you're not officially an employee yet.

I think it would have to do with the company finding out. They are very mindful of their brand. Even though the intent may be innocent, they may not see it that way.
Many people have been fired after employers found their personal online profiles / websites.

Bingo! To add to what KC said, keep in mind that everything is subject to interpretation. Someone could imply that they are tired of waiting in the pool, and really mean that they are dying to start their job with SWA. Yet, the company could interpret the same comment to meant that you've lost interest.

Actually being on a social networking site is innocent. And if a company is not willing to hire someone just because they are on one is retarded. I'm not sure I'd want to work for that company.
Edit: I can understand a job in security or one in a "sensitive" feild, but come on. We are pilots. We are social creatures.
