I note that your post is dated December 07. Has anything changed? The reason I ask, is I want to share this on a Facebook group I admin and I don't want dragged into the privacy quaqmire. Been there, don't need it again. I would be interested in knowing how you view facebook culture in general, but especially around this issue of privacy. I found about five members in the group I admin (200 members now) who had set their privacy options so restrictive that I had no way to contact them other than blasting the entire group. We discuss controversial issues around religion and I don't feel right about having people lurking with controls set to the point where they cannot be contacted. Besides it seems to me there is a broader issue. The general scheme of facebook is to help people make personal connections and build networks. I would challenge these people to try and join the NRA, or even the United Way if all they are willing to share is their name and nothing else. I would try to get them to dialog with me, but alas, they are too aloof for words. If I open a discussion on my group would you be willing to share your expertise on this issue by becoming a member? Thanks Rich Collins Hi,
