Facebook Privacy Guide

PC World published a wonderful article about Facebook and privacy settings in the February 2011 issue. The title of the article is "The Paranoid's Guide to Facebook" and it is available online at http://www.pcworld.com/article/210859/the_paranoids_guide_to_facebook.html

As noted in the article, over 1/2 BILLION people worldwide are using Facebook. In my interviews with faculty worldwide about global e-learning and the Internet - Facebook is commonly mentioned.

Read the article if you want simple, but helpful information on the following:
  1. Disabling Facebook places
  2. Controlling items posted to your profile
  3. Hiding your app activity
  4. Disabling Facebook apps
  5. Controlling what your friends reveal
  6. Deleting your Facebook account
