Important Facebook info

My disappearing columns etc have resurfaced.

Looks like I was one of the guinea pigs for the Facebook profile change. It'll be coming to you all too soon. This explains the changes and why everyone's pretty upset. Apart from linking you to things you don't want to be, and then deleting your interests/movies/books etc if you refuse to link to their chosen (and often incorrect) pages, it also blows your privacy settings wide open.

Once you're forced to change, go immediately to the privacy settings page and click on the new link 'Friends, Tags and Connections'. Your personal information that you may have had locked to friends only will be open to everyone. Though there's confusion over whether even locking to friends only actually hides some things from public view.
