Funny I use facebook every day. It does not do anything that you dont tell it to do. It does not auto export/invite your address book. You must confirm each person who wants to be your friend. Just like deleting or not posts you dont like. It is a great way to network with lost school chums and family you rarely see. You even have to tell it if you want email notifications from your page. There are many applications that can take your facebook friends list and generate spam wiithin facebook, but i always deny their access requests. Facebook is not the next great satan. It is a useful tool for those who use it. I even have a business page there that is growing.

Evidently this IS the case. I closed out my Facebook account because the number of "friends" was growing exponentially. And I had heard of none of them. Friends of friends I would suppose but I want no part of it. - JimT ______________________________________________________________ Our Main Website: http://www.amfone.net AMRadio mailing list Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/amradio@mailman.qth.net/ List Rules (must read!): http://w5ami.net/amradiofaq.html List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Post: AMRadio@mailman.qth.net To unsubscribe, send an email to amradio-requ...@mailman.qth.net with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
