26. Online Predators and Facebook How do Internet predators take a profile page on a social networking site and turn it in to a map of your life? On Facebook people openly list information like their gender, birth date, hometown, school, political views and religious affiliations. There are event announcements, party attendance lists, friend lists, group lists, fan pages and The Wall where friends post messages. All of these things make it very easy for a predator to stalk you in real time.

27. While nothing is fail safe here are some tips that will keep you safer: Make your profile private so that only friends can see it. People from your past that may be looking for you will still find your name in a search but they won’t see your profile until you add them as a friend. Don’t list your birth date, or at the least omit the year. Consider not listing your hometown, political views or religious affiliations. Don’t put your phone number on your profile. People you really know will have other ways to get it. Restrict your picture settings so that only friends can see pictures you post or pictures that you are tagged in. You do this in the privacy settings on Facebook.

28. While nothing is fail safe here are some tips that will keep you safer: Be selective in the applications that you add. Stay away from overly personal applications or applications that give away information you have purposely left out of your profile. Social networking sites are great ways to stay connected to people and to get in touch with old friends. You do not have to stay away from sites like Facebook in order to be safe online. You just need to be aware and make smart decisions about the things you put on your profile page.

29. Common Thoughts Adding users as friends without proper introductions. If you’re looking to make friends, tell people who you are. Don’t assume they know you — especially if they, well, don’t. Abusing group invites. If your friends are interested, they’ll likely join without your “encouragement.” And if they don’t accept, don’t send the group request more than once by asking them to join via email, wall post, or Facebook message.

30. Common Thoughts Publicizing a private conversation on a wall post. In case it isn’t obvious, Facebook wall posts are completely public to all your friends (unless you tweak your privacy settings). Private matters should be handled privately: via email or even in Facebook private messages. Tagging individuals in unflattering pictures that may end up costing your friends their jobs. Avoid the unnecessary commentary also, especially on your childhood pictures that portray your tagged friends as chubby and not so popular. Further, if your friends request to be untagged, don’t make a stink of it. Limit Facebook chat. Just because someone has a Facebook window open doesn't mean they're automatically available for a chat session. Facebook Chat is like any other instant messaging platform--use it appropriately, and recognize that your friends may be too busy to respond immediately, especially during business hours.

31. Common Thoughts on Pictures Only add photos to your club page if the member’s enrolment form has been signed and the photo release is checked on the form! Beware of embarrassing photos. Resist the temptation to post every last photo from your birthday party on Facebook, particularly images that may cast your guests in an unflattering light. If you have any doubt, ask the subjects of any iffy pics in advance whether they'd mind your posting the shots; then abide by their wishes. Tag lightly. The same thing goes for tagging: The people in a picture might not object to its being online as long as their names are not associated with it. Untag thyself. It is no breach of etiquette to untag yourself from any photograph.
