Is Facebook Turning Into Twitter?

Posted by on Dec 9, 2009 | One Comment

There should be an image here!It’s funny as one of the things I preferred about Facebook is that I was able to maintain more control over who could see my profile. And despite their push to get us to go public, I guess I still can.

So what is the deal with Facebook wanting to make our profiles public all of a sudden? What’s the catch? At least they were up front about it. To the degree of being able to make sure that we are still in a strong position to choose how public our profiles actually are.

Despite Facebook being fairly upfront this time around, many users are none too happy about the settings changes. Then again, I am not all that worried about it as Facebook did do a fairly good job explaining the differences with each choice selected.

    I like Facebook and use it on a regular basis for staying in touch with people I know and playing a few of the games offered on it.

    The way I see it is simple. I like simple.

    If you don’t want your information shared and can’t find a way to un-share it or something of that nature then just don’t have the information on there. When you get to know someone you won’t even look at that information anyway. What’s the point of having it on there?
