Some say gossip site Juicycampus.com could ruin a college kid's life.

Moms of college students, listen up. A new website called Juicycampus.com allows college students to post gossip about their classmates anonymously. But when people name names and post things that just aren't true, students worry that this will ruin their chances of future employment, not to mention ruin their reputation. What if their family Googles them, and finds

posts like: "So-and-so got drunk last night and slept with four guys"? Then what? Opponents of the site say this is defamation. But proponents say that shutting it down would infringe on students' freedom of speech. What do you think?

I don’t think there is anything wrong with posting gossip. But if you are going to name names, then you should have to give yours. It’s all about accountablity.
