I am a facebook fan and mostly spend my time playing some games and just talking out with my colleages. Surely, there are so many ways we can use facebook and I really love using it. I hope they have something more new to come for all of us.

I found the flaw in the “event invitation” feature of facebook.

I wrote more about it on my blog, here, http://www.mattkowalczyk.com/blog/?p=92 but it appears no matter what response you make to an event, your decision is made public.

Why should they delete their accounts?

Whether you are on facebook, myspace, or any other public website or board, its YOU who are responsible for what goes out to the public. So always being aware of what you are doing or agreeing to is part and parcel of that responsibility.

Many go on sites and post things they shouldn’t on the net. Some who are job hunting find out the hard way, when they don’t get the job cos their employer searches simply by name for anything they have posted, facebook not withstanding. You can pay many a website money to find out someones address, phone number and such.

Very easy to get without facebook.

i don’t intend to hide becos there is bad apples out there, i intend to be responsible and not get mad at someone else if i screw up. i don’t see the point of not using a app when i can simply go in my own account and shut down the permissions. No i don’t need someone else to do it..i aint that lazy. Yes it took the whole day to do all 3 accounts for my family. simply use the link that was given afterwards to keep an eye on it…and enjoy.

Facebook doesn’t hide the facts, they tell them to you straight. And to sign up for an account a box is checked (or must be checked) stating that you have read and agree to such. Yes, they can be long and seem to take forever to read, but was there any less information to take in when we got our drivers licenses? Don’t we all have to spend years in school to learn everything we use in everyday life? Didn’t our computers themselves come with instruction manuals or aren’t they at least available from the manufacturer? From the time we’re born we are told to ‘follow directions’, ‘do what we are told’, ‘be responsible’, and many times ‘pay attention’. It is no wonder many of our youth are ignoring what they are taught – they aren’t shown any better! That is my opinion…like it or ignore it. Up to you.
