I just finished roaming around facebook for an hour an tried to take as many notes but kept finding myself caught up in everyone's photos and news. Usually when I sign on to facebook I browse up and down the newsfeed looking at the current things everyone is uploading. Then I will click on whatever is interesting or make a smartass comment on someones status. I rarlley update my status but when I do I receive some foul comments.
Anyways, I looked around some of my friends profiles and others. I noticed that whoever I was friends with I could see whatever I wanted, updates, photos, ect. When I linked to non-friends but had mutual friends security setting were different. If I had no mutual friends security settings were strict not seeing anything besides a name. Interesting, it's pretty hard to find someone without mutual friends. About half of my friends had updated their status and had a current profile picture from atleast the summer. I think everyone loves to put a picture on from summer. After I realized more people than I thought had security settings I went and changed mine, you should too.
It is interesting that you talk about the security of your profile. I also just recently had a person that I knew in middle school friend me. I haven't talked to him in 7 years and he wanted to be my friend. Moments like this make me think they only want to be friends so they can look into my life and see where I am at. This kid was one who actually bullied me in middle school. Needless to say I changed my profile settings to all private because I really don't need a ton of random people looking into my life.
