I have never had one which is strange considering I'm not exactly old. My wife has one though so the only thing I would use it for at this time is for our poker group. So whenever there is an event it shows up for her.

The funny thing is how often employers use that on employees or potential employees. Before I got my job they said they searched for me before hiring me. I never really made the connection that I could have one anyways and they wouldn't have seen it.

You're such a little bitch I doubt anyone wants to interact with you in any way anyhow.

yeah, I have never been big on having coworkers on my facebook profile. I have one right now, but I knew him before I was employed at my job and he is a CPer.

I have my profile pretty locked down though. You can't really find me at all if you don't know me. Not saying it is impossible but the average user won't know how to do it.

So what you're saying is, if I saw you and didn't know who you were, I wouldn't know that it was you?

Crap. I'm dumped, huh?

Seems kind of pointless if you want to see updates from specific people, but to each their own. I got into adding a bunch of people at one point, just to realize how many people just aren't that interesting on there.

Maybe... there are certainly many ways to keep up with people, but being fairly anti social and working 50-60 hours/week, it's nice to have one place to kind of catch up with what's going on with people without texting them all, and also update several people without telling the same story 50 times.

I have seen that debated. I don't know which way is true. I have heard that others can't see your stuff if you have your settings done correctly.
I have also heard you can't stop them from seeing your page and or finding you. I can tell you I have mine set up to friends only can see my stuff and I have had employers and others that have found out things on facebook and been told it is because you agree to the terms of facebook.

You can absolutely keep people from seeing your page or finding you. And you can turn off search engine indexing so that no one can find you on Google too.

Damn cool. Thanks for the google search indexing info I just changed that as well.

Cool - that's the big one. If you do that, everyone will just get a "page not found" error even if they have the exact address to your profile.

I suppose I'll mention that I don't THINK you can hide your profile pic and header for people who are logged into Facebook (though they'd have to know your page address to get there if you've got the searching stuff turned off). I believe the rest of your profile stuff has to be hidden on a case by case basis.

Liberal use of the little "View as..." gizmo in the upper-right of your profile under the gear icon is your friend in making sure you get it locked down sufficiently for your liking.

I don't even think we are friends on Facebook or I'd be pissed.:p
