1. I am on FB

but try not to post too personal things about myself. Still, with the "likes" they know a lot about me. It is a scary thought what they are saving. The reason I am on FB is to stay in contact with American friends (I am German) who left DU. And with some other German friends as well of course.

Even with all the info out about FB it is amazing how many people still are not grasping the danger of their postings. In Germany there is news every now and then about FB parties that got out of hand because someone didn't know how to keep an invitation private.

I think there ought to be classes about social networks.
