that's why you set your privacy levels (&/or use pseudonym) so as joe public cant see shit.

Maybe it's just a girl thing or even just a ME thing.

caution is just good sense

KB fulfills my need for social networking - other than that I have these amazing devices - telephones (one I even carry around with me!), I also have an address book and email

people change their phone numbers and email addresses all the time, just this morning i used facebook to get the details of a mate i'm trying to hook up with a job (and his flatmate).

and hell I even sometimes get in my car or jump on my bike and go places to see people. Those that don't have details to get in touch with me don't have them for a reason....

again, FB is good for organising such social interactions, like getting a bunch of friends to meet for drinks or go see a band etc.
and yah security settings - ppl you dont add cant see your details

BTW - not getting at you imne1 good for you if it has been successful for you

I have to deal with 'people' all day everyday. That's one of the many reasons I ride. It's just me in that helmet.

If I want to catch up with ppl, I can phone, text, e-mail, visit in person, send snail-mail, skype etc etc.

As far as catching up with old friends - I'm over living in the past. I've got a few old friends that only want to talk about what happened 10 years ago. Can't be bothered with it.

It's way too easy for the great unwashed to search up information on individuals via the internet without inviting stalkers by using those sites!

A prefer to protect what little privacy remains nowadays.

However, the site I frequent the most is KB
