Facebook Privacy Guide - In 2 Minutes
I've written this predominantly for friends and associates who might not be so tapped into all the recent tech scene coverage over Facebook's new Privacy changes.
If you've skipped past the new Privacy notice that has appeared recently on Facebook and haven't had time to read their new Privacy Guide, you need to read this.
The really short version is that accepting Facebook's new 'recommended' privacy settings will mean all your future status updates and posted photos will be available to the general public. That means prospective employers.
If you've enjoyed this post you can receive future musings, as I write them, via email. I post about once a week on average. More techy folk might prefer to subscribe to my RSS feed and I'd be delighted if you do. I'm rather more active on Twitter, have a few pictures up on Flickr, and I tend to keep track of people on LinkedIn and increasingly-less-so Facebook. My day job is running WorldTV.com - a site for doing cool things with online video.

Thanks a lot for sharing this face book privacy guide with all of us. We all use face book but i think there will be very few people who know these secrets about privacy there.so it's quite useful.
