I was working a long 12 hour day yesterday and I’m still catching up on the news of the Facebook’s new privacy controls that rolled out yesterday (Wednesday, May 26, 2010).An explanation of these new privacy controls can be reviewed & checked out over on http://www.facebook.com/privacy/explanation.php
Here’s a YouTube video of Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg talking about the new privacy controls . . .
Wanted to and thought it was the right thing to do to follow-up on my “To Facebook or Not Facebook?” blog post with one that indicates to me that the people of Facebook are listening to the customer and user. Plus it’s current up-to-date information that those that use Facebook need to know about. It’s coming straight from the CEO’s month too in the YouTube, so it seems to me their serious as well as, at least, trying to help to make things simpler. You’ll still have the critics that won’t be satisfied with Facebook's new privacy protections. If you’re not satisfied then move on and that is always an option if you’re not happy with something.
I’ll be checking the new privacy controls over the next few days and I hope you do so also.

I’m go to continue to use, post, and have fun on Facebook. Also to understand how usefully Facebook can be and has been thus far in maintaining contact with family, friends, co-workers, and the possibility to meet new friends on this social network program. So if your doing the Facebook do so safely and enjoy the fun that the platform has to offer you.
I’m even reading the book “The Accidental Billionaires” about the founding of Facebook to better understand it. Maybe that’ll be a future blog post for a book review.
Have a good weekend all and I’ll be seeing you out there on Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and on the Blog Sphere.
