Task #4 - Facebook
I'm a latecomer to Facebook - I've had my account only for a year or two. I resisted it for the longest time due to privacy reasons and because I just didn't feel like I needed it. But now I realize just how useful it is. It's so much easier to keep in touch with friends and family, and I can follow their status updates and check out their latest pics to see what they've been up to. As for the privacy issue, I check my settings regularly to ensure that only my friends can see my profile, pics, and updates. I do have concerns when it comes to my son using Facebook and other social networks. He's still too young now, but one day he will be active on these networks, and I know I'll have to monitor his activity for his own safety. As for myself, I will continue to use Facebook regularly after Betty Blogger as I find it a fun and very useful social networking tool.

I'm glad you like and use Facebook. You and others in our group are giving me encouragement to sign up again. I'm starting to see the benefits. I did sign up two years ago and a old boy friend asked to be my friend right away. My husband wasn't too happy. So I deleted my acct.
ReplyDeleteI really like the colours you used in your design very rich and calming. Looks great.
Fantastic advice about regularly checking privacy settings! People have been caught unaware in the past because they didn't pay attention when Facebook made changes to its policies and settings.
