Facebook is a great social networking tool if used correctly.  Sure, catching up with workmates, friends, enemies, mistresses, etc, can prove to be beneficial.  But sometimes I think people can go overboard when posting original content, along with other sensitive information.

My FaceBook account is pretty plain.  You won’t find an overabundance of third party applications that seems to run amok with various user pages.  And you will never find me posting any personal information (or pictures) that could otherwise be used by malicious phishers or potential thieves.  Moreover, Facebook has a great amount of leverage over user content.  They basically own everything you post.

Like it or not.  We have little privacy left in our electronic world.  Unless the content benefits me in a financial way, the less I post on Facebook, the better.
