David said: "My original question was on how retention policy applied to 
something that was not a company record -- at least not in the normal way 
we look at such things."

A corporate retention policy (and it's RIM program in general) is something 
that bolsters an organization's position on information governance and 
corporate responsibility.  It provides a standard by which information should 
be managed.

Asking employees to use their private Facebook accounts is the exact 
opposite of that.  Even if you added the retention category "Privately Owned 
Social Media Accounts," there is no way to apply or enforce retention (is an 
employee in violation of company policy if he doesn't clean out the history of 
his/her personal Facebook page every year?) and it wouldn't stand up to 
scrutiny in any kind of legal challenge.
