Fired for Blogging!

Red Herring is reporting on Joyce Park, who was fired for blogging about her company's slow servers. Her otherwise-personal blog, Troutgirl, has been a solid presence online for almost five years. Her case makes one wonder, how important is it to maintain anonymity online? And, does the employer have a right to sneak in on your online diary and take that as a basis of action against you? I have a job offer in hand and now I am thinking that maybe I made a mistake revealing about my blogging to an engineer at the future employer. Have you had any negative personal/professional experiences due to any particular disclosure(s) in your blogs?
