Facebook Settings

With Facebook announcing its "places" settings this past week, I think it's important that we look again at the amount of information we share on social media sites.  Students, let me suggest that we all check our privacy settings on Facebook so that we do not share information with people who don't need access to it.  Does everyone need to know when your birthday is?  Should your profile be posted on sites like Google or Yahoo?  I think it's time that we reconsider how much information we put out on the internet!

Below is a video to help you change your settings regarding the new "places" feature that allows you to "check in" at a given location.  From what I've read, you must "opt out" of this feature, as all are naturally "opted in."
