Thanks for your comments
I'm going through my employer agreement to see if there is anything on this subject.
Early on as I was putting together my notes I got the feeling it has the potential for a blog post, so I made the document very generic, and was careful not to mention anything about our internal data, DB versions, OS etc..
So it would be somewhat difficult to re-word the document, maybe I could change the example data, but even then the overlap would be quite large.
Next time I will do a company specific one, and keep the generic examples in my head to do in my own time.
Update: my agreement has a "Social Media Policy" section and so long as I mention that "the views expressed on the blog or Web site are yours (mine) alone and do not represent the views of the company", it would seem I'm OK
