:D

Some are funny...some are so sad (like the parents getting divorced and the kid finding out by the status update)

Just seen the divorce one, that's sad but some of the others are very funny.

It reminds me, don't let people from your work become your facebook friends. I have only one colleague as friend on facebook, she was somebody I knew before (not through work). Then she became my colleague and now she is became my "study support tutor" :roll:
She is really cool but no way I am allowing anybody else from work to become my friends ever again. There are some senior managers from my company on Facebook and sometimes others can see your photos even if you didn't authorise them as your friend (through friend you have in common with them I think).

So be careful who you authorise to see your stuff, especially if you do thing you don't want your boss to know about...

Yeah, that's something I hate about facebook. The fact that effectively random people can view all photos of me if they happen share a friend with me.

It's the reason I un-tag myself in every photo I appear in on facebook.

Why not just change your privacy settings so that only your friends can see photos you are tagged in? :?

I did a whole thread about that. It was somewhere else. I forget where...

One of my friends slapped me because I made reference to their blog on a Facebook comment. I do like talking to friends about stuff, but sometimes it's difficult when there is stuff you want to share on a limited basis...

I did add a work person. I've not seen an update recently though; maybe I blocked her.

*checks*

Nope, just hasn't posted for a month. They must have blocked FB at my old office because she used to be on all day :lol:

Internet Rules:

#1 Never post, send or upload anything you wouldn't want everyone you will ever meet to have a copy of.
#2 Never explain the basics of Facebook to anyone who irritates you.
