If you ever get unfriended on Facebook, you may see an outline of a face

Fictional privacy among Facebook users.

The current study involved the creation of a fictional

to assess whether participants would accept the friendship
of an ambiguous, unknown person. Results indicated that
325 Facebook members (72% of the sample) willingly accepted
the friendship of the unknown individual. Results are

[FairfieldLife] Facebook Linked To One In Five Divorces in the United States

2011-03-01 Thread Tom Pall
http://scienceblog.com/43196/facebook-linked-to-one-in-five-divorces-in-the-united-states/
http://tinyurl.com/4jad6ez

on February 28, 2011

If you’re single, Facebook and other social networking sites can help you
meet that special someone. However, for those in even the healthiest of
marriages, improper use can quickly devolve into a marital disaster.

A recent survey by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers found that
Facebook is cited in one in five divorces in the United States. Also, more
than 80 percent of divorce lawyers reported a rising number of people are
using social media to engage in extramarital affairs.

“We’re coming across it more and more,” said licensed clinical psychologist
Steven Kimmons, Ph.D., of Loyola University Medical Center in Maywood, Ill.
“One spouse connects online with someone they knew from high school. The
person is emotionally available and they start communicating through
Facebook. Within a short amount of time, the sharing of personal stories can
lead to a deepened sense of intimacy, which in turn can point the couple in
the direction of physical contact.”

Though already-strained marriages are most vulnerable, a couple doesn’t have
to be experiencing marital difficulties in order for an online relationship
to blossom from mere talk into a full-fledged affair, Kimmons said. In most
instances, people enter into online relationships with the most innocent of
intentions.

“I don’t think these people typically set out to have affairs,” said
Kimmons, whose practice includes couples therapy and marriage counseling. “A
lot of it is curiosity. They see an old friend or someone they dated and
decide to say ‘hello’ and catch up on where that person is and how they’re
doing.”

It all boils down to the amount of contact two people in any type of
relationships –
including online – have with each other, Kimmons said. The more contact they
have, the more likely they are to begin developing feelings for each other.

“If I’m talking to one person five times a week versus another person one
time a week, you don’t need a fancy psychological study to conclude that I’m
more likely to fall in love with the person I talk to five times a week
because I have more contact with that person,” Kimmons said.

Stories of people whose marriages were destroyed by affairs that began on
social networking sites abound on the Internet. It’s enough to make some
people swear off online technology for life. Though there are no
hard-and-fast rules to follow, there are some safeguards couples can apply
to decrease the chance of online relationships getting out of control. For
starters, do a self-assessment of why you’re using online sites.

“Look at the population of the people who are your online friends,” Kimmons
said. “Is it a good mixture of men and women? Do you spend more time talking
to females versus males or do you favor a certain type of friend over
another? That can tell you something about how you’re using social networks.
You may not even be aware that you’re heading down a road that can get
quickly get pretty dangerous, pretty fast to your marriage.”

Another safeguard is to spell out from the beginning with your online
contacts what your expectations are of social networking relationships.
Also, it’s a good idea to not engage in intimate conversation with someone
who is not your spouse.

“From the start tell your online friend that you’re not looking for anything
more than establishing old contacts with people to find out how they’re
doing,” Kimmons said.

In some instances, couples could share passwords with each other and place
the computer in a common area in the house or apartment.

“It’s not that people are going to read what you’re writing but they’ll see
what you’re doing,” he said. “Then it’s not a secret.”

Couples can also set parameters around how much time and when they are
online each day.

“If you’re doing this at 2 o’clock in the morning with no one watching
because you don’t want anyone else to know about it, that should be a signal
to you that this is something approaching a boundary line or you’re at least
moving in that direction,” Kimmons said.

Rick, does this have anything to do with the
fact that Bevan (or somebody pretending to
be him) has suddenly appeared on FB?
Yes, and sent me a friend invitation, which I accepted. He's inviting all sorts 
of people whom you would expect to be his friends, but me? In my typical "all 
points on the spectrum" fashion, part of me is actually rather fond of part of 
him.

I got a notification that Rick was now friends with Bevan Morris and was a 
little surprised to see Bevan on Facebook, but not too much, since it's so 
ubiquitous these days. It did not even cross my mind that this was a union of 
ultra-TB and OTP.

I know, I've already seen it.
Most of the "info" is pretty much all well-knownn stuff.
It looks to me like a joke, but who knows?
If so, seems a lot of people are falling for it.

I know, I've already seen it.
Most of the "info" is pretty much all well-knownn stuff.
It looks to me like a joke, but who knows?
If so, seems a lot of people are falling for it.

Rick, does this have anything to do with the
fact that Bevan (or somebody pretending to

I would think it would be quite possible, 
relatively easy in fact--it's also possibly actionable
and obviously against the rules.

Re: [FairfieldLife] Facebook Question

2010-05-25 Thread gullible fool



Sure, if someone wants to set up a dozen different accounts, all he needs is a 
dozen different email addresses. He can put any name on any account and any pic 
he can upload as a profile pic, though Facebook does not approve of copyright 
infringement. One way to try to protect against it is to adjust the account 
privacy settings so that fewer people can see the friend list. The options are: 
'Everyone', 'Friends of Friends', 'Friends Only', and 'Customize'. Customize 
allows one to enter names or a list of names in either a 'Make this visible to' 
list, or a 'Hide this from' list, or both. For instance, if you were the person 
concerned and you restricted your friend list to 'Friends Only', then I would 
still have access to your friend list and Rory would still have access to your 
friend list, because we are friends, but if LB were not one of your friends, 
then he would not be able to view your friend list. Some detective work can get 
around the
 restriction to some degree, like if the perpetrator looked at my profile, he 
would be able to see we are friends and add me to the list of people he wants 
to try to fool into thinking he is you...he would be able to see we are friends 
if he browses through my friend list because I open my friend list to 
eveeryone.

I doubt very many want to see it go under.
But that doesn't mean using public funds
is the way to go.  I hope they can come up
with some other creative ways of raising cash, like
the concerts.  I thought the county was 
right-on in not even wanting a vote.

Kirk, this is great.  There's a UK newspaper going entirely to Twitter:

 Twitter switch for Guardian, after 188 years of ink

• Newspaper to be available only on messaging service
• Experts say any story can be told in 140 characters
 Comments 
(…)

   - Rio Palof
   - The Guardian , Wednesday 1 April
   2009


Consolidating its position at the cutting edge of new media technology, the
Guardian  today announces that
it will become the first newspaper in the world to be published exclusively
via Twitter, the sensationally popular social
networkingservice
that has transformed online communication.

The move, described as "epochal" by media commentators, will see all
Guardian content tailored to fit the format of Twitter's brief text
messages, known as "tweets", which are limited to 140 characters each.
Boosted by the involvement of celebrity "twitterers", such as Madonna,
Britney Spears and Stephen Fry, Twitter's profile has surged in recent
months, attracting more than 5m users who send, read and reply to tweets via
the web or their mobile phones.

As a Twitter-only publication, the Guardian will be able to harness the
unprecedented newsgathering power of the service, demonstrated recently when
a passenger on a plane that crashed outside Denver was able to send
real-time updates on the story as it developed, as did those witnessing an
emergency landing on New York's Hudson River. It has also radically
democratised news publishing, enabling anyone with an internet connection to
tell the world when they are feeling sad, or thinking about having a cup of
tea.

"[Celebrated Guardian editor] CP Scott would have warmly endorsed this - his
well-known observation 'Comment is free but facts are sacred' is only 36
characters long," a spokesman said in a tweet that was itself only 135
characters long.

A mammoth project is also under way to rewrite the whole of the newspaper's
archive, stretching back to 1821, in the form of tweets. Major stories
already completed include "1832 Reform Act gives voting rights to one in
five adult males yay!!!"; "OMG Hitler invades Poland, allies declare war see
tinyurl.com/b5x6e for more"; and "JFK assassin8d @ Dallas, def. heard second
gunshot from grassy knoll WTF?"

Sceptics have expressed concerns that 140 characters may be insufficient to
capture the full breadth of meaningful human activity, but social media
experts say the spread of Twitter encourages brevity, and that it ought to
be possible to convey the gist of any message in a tweet.

For example, Martin Luther King's legendary 1963 speech on the steps of the
Lincoln memorial appears in the Guardian's Twitterised archive as "I have a
dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they
will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by", eliminating the
waffle and bluster of the original.

At a time of unprecedented challenge for all print media, many publications
have rushed to embrace social networking technologies. Most now offer
Twitter feeds of major breaking news headlines, while the Daily Mail
recently pioneered an iPhone application providing users with a one-click
facility for reporting suspicious behaviour by migrants or gays. "In the new
media environment, readers want short and punchy coverage, while the
interactive possibilities of Twitter promise to transform th," the online
media guru Jeff Jarvis said in a tweet yesterday, before reaching his
140-character limit, which includes spaces. According to subsequent reports,
he is thinking about going to the theatre tonight, but it is raining :(.

A unique collaboration between The Guardian and Twitter will also see the
launch of Gutter, an experimental service designed to filter noteworthy
liberal opinion from the cacophony of Twitter updates. Gutter members will
be able to use the service to comment on liberal blogs around the web via a
new tool, specially developed with the blogging platform WordPress, entitled
GutterPress.

Currently, 17.8% of all Twitter traffic in the United Kingdom consists of
status updates from Stephen Fry, whose reliably jolly tone, whether trapped
in a lift or eating a scrumptious tart, has won him thousands of fans. A
further 11% is made up of his 363,000 followers replying "@stephenfry LOL!",
"@stephenfry EXACTLY the same thing happened to me", and "@stephenfry
Meanwhile, I am making myself an omelette! Delicious!"

According to unconfirmed rumours, Jim Buckmaster, the chief executi
