Yeah, got 4 years ago when it was still only for college students....ya know, you needed a college email address to do it. It was good then. Then they opened it all and I predicted much fail....and I was right!

My wife's friends list is showing all their telephone numbers, including mobile phone numbers.
Not good privacy and precisely one of the reasons I don't have a Facebook.

You can hide those facts if you want to. I'm very careful on my privacy too, so that's what I do.

That's quite OK, hide those facts all you try to, we know who you are and where you live and all your numbers already.

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Well, nobody knows nothing about me, because I don't have FB.
For me, it's a complete waste of time. And I have enough in Progarchives so...

Change the program inside... Stay in silence is a crime.

I get the whole privacy thing..but you can limit what you put on there, if you don't want everyone to know your phone number, or even the town you're from then don't put it. I'm pretty sure my brother has his sex on there, and his political views, which say "political parties, yeah parties are cool" No relationship status, hometown, schools, jobs, bio, music/TV/movies enjoyed, nothing. Its not like FB makes you put everything up. Not that it matters. My tech skills sucks as it is, but if someone wants your info, they WILL get it. You dont need to put it up there. Hell they dont even need to use FB to do so.

Yes I have a Facebook. But, I'm also 18, and it's somewhat of a prerequisite for people of my age.
Not that it's really helping my failing social life anyways.

Yep, It's pretty much become my primary source of contact with any of my friends that don't go on msn. I don't use my phone very much either...

I started a page way back..back when M@X started a PA's page and was fishing for people to hit that page... and promptly ignored it. After seeing Raff have a blast with it these last couple of months.. I started mine back up... accepted friend requests two years waiting.. and have enjoyed messing around with it.
