    Hi everyone:

    I recently sought your opinion on the pros and cons of joining Facebook and based on your comments, decided to join, in a very half-hearted way, with no photo, no info, etc. One list I am on recently had a discussion about how it was hard to keep privacy on Facebook and how it was uncomfortable to have all of the different aspects of our lives, such as being gifted or having gifted kids, open to every Facebook "friend."

    I just saw this very helpful site about Facebook privacy settings, including how to maintain different Facebook friend lists that filter who can see what. I had no idea this was possible.

    It's at:

    (whose PTA activity has led to being Facebook "friends" with several teachers at DS9's school)

    Hi bk1
    Thanks so much for this link - very interesting for me! I only recently joined Facebook to stay in touch with friends far away, I am off to sort out all my privacy settings!
