Facebook has a small feed telling me when and where my friends like or comment something. Does that make anyone else wonder what's next?

Let's not forget the search function "liked/photos by [Display Name]"

This is one of the many reasons I don't have a FB page, just not personal enough for me. I have seen many family and friends lose relationships over FB.

Facebook - making it easy to spy on people since 2003.
When you put your life on the internet, don't be surprised when it comes back to bite you.

This is another reason to be careful of what you post on Facebook. Perception is very important and face I can very quickly distort it and prejudice others against you or give people false impressions. I.e. You take pictures of you and your friends at drinking and suddenly you are perceived as an alcoholic.

Not really. It's social media, so the entire point is to not live in a private bubble. It is part of the experience. As a social media professional, I constantly tell people that Facebook exists to share likes, interests, events and other parts of ourselves with the people around us, regardless of geographical distance. What you do there is, by and large, a public record so be careful what you feed it.

SGT Private RallyPoint Member Frankly, as hardcore-IT as you are, so much so that you prefer linux for security reasons (it seems), I'm rather surprised that you use FB at all. I personally don't touch it, because it's a friggen' sieve.
