It can be so random at times though an amaze me. For example, as a teenager I was in the Canadian Air Cadets and one of the summer camps I went to was in Winnipeg. I just got a message from a gal from Manitoba that was there at the same time. Had it not been for facebook I doubt I would have ever heard from her again in my life :O

Actually, tagging I was told was posting an embarrassing pic of someone else ?

I thought it was just posting pics of your friends and labelling them with their names. You have the option to remove your name or change it I think. Besides, only the people in your facebook list can see the pics (well as well as the friends of whoever posted the photo.

Yeah, the pics don't actually have to be embarrassing! I think some of mine are, but not intentionally, LOL. *ouch*

So, Facebook is a p***ing contest, eh? I wonder who's p***ing the farthest....

Got this note today from a friend - you may wish to take a look at this if you're on Facebook:

Quote:

Apparently Facebook has started SELLING user information (surprise, surprise!) to third parties. They call it the "Facebook Development Platform."

To restrict use of your information, do the following:
Click "Privacy" on top right.
Under the "Facebook Platform" section click"Edit Settings".
Scroll down to the bottom and UNCHECK ALL of the items under facebook platform.

If you check any items, your name, networks, and list of friends will also be shared. If you uncheck all items, no information about you will be shared.

Most creepy is the inclusion of photographs!
(Do your friends a favor and repost this as your own note.)

Nothing ever ever comes for free - Facebook has to be earning income somehow.. So ... anyhow there ya go.
