If it was a program that you can have on your computer to chronicle your life sounds pretty awesome. I'm just not a fan of how public it is and how users are forced to go back and delete everything because the privacy settings are so relaxed. |
This is a big issue for me too, being a young business person, I have friends, past clients (which are all children who took horse riding lessons from me) and business professionals, old bosses etc on my FB. I try really hard to not post things that are embarrassing, but for instance the other day I posted:
"Had a good check up for the little man... trying a new shampoo that should help clear up the itch, it looks as if his dry skin is starting to clear up.... maybe a light at the end of the tunnel? On other news... I think Petsecure is going to hate me this year... definitely putting the insurance to the test this year."
Well an immature friend of mine made an inappropriate comment about my BF (let your mind wander...), when I was clearly talking about Harley. *facepalm*
I sooooo don't want to have to delete all of my past posts. May just go make a new account and get rid of the old one.
