    Default facebook stalkers

    so i find that every time i go to facebook (witch is not to often ) people are trying to chat and there is always some sort of message (from different people) asking me whats up with this that or the other thing because of what they think they saw or heard on facebook . then there are the ex-girl friends , akk , i found that they go to my profile all the time just to check up on what im doin . so i was just wondering if anybody else has or is a facebook stalker . id like to hear some stories if your willing to share .

    What's Facebook? I do not understand how people demand all this privacy and then plaster ones self all over the net. and then bitch about it when they get fired or something because they say the boss (or company) is a dipstick.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    im not sure what a facebook is . but i was told a few years ago by an employer to start one for work . dont really have any info on there , just another place to get mail of me . But the amount of weight people put on it is silly at best .

    I use mine to keep in touch with friends and relatives.
    the amount of privacy involved is up to the person setting up the account.
    As with everything in life there is a potential for abuse.
    And as with everything on the internet, you aren't anonymous, don't do anything you dont want everyone to know about.

    consider all of those and you are OK

    +1 great for reconnecting with old High School / home town friends. You can lock your privacy settings down.

    I use mine mainly for family and to keep in touch with army buddies around the world. The settings are all private, which means they can't see any of my info unless they are my friend. I even set the pictures private (I think the default setting is that "friends of friends" can see your pictures...which is a lot of people when you think about it). I don't have any work info on mine either or actual location info.

    If someone I don't like requests me as a friend, I don't confirm or deny, I just let it sit there so they can't ask again...

    There is NO privacy at Facebook.

    Your information is being data mined.

    Have fun.

    I work at a college campus - Facebook is how most of these people communicate, so it would be part of my life even if I didn't use it personally.

    Facebook is really easy - don't say anything you wouldn't say to a newspaper reporter, and don't put any info on there that you don't want "that one person" (ex-girlfriend, stalker, etc) to see.

    The privacy settings are great, but nothing is 100%, so simply control what you put up there.

    I love seeing the great (or not so great) things that some of my old classmates and friends have done over the years, seeing photos of places they've been, etc. Like most things in life, some moderation and common sense make it work pretty well.
