Facebook has opened up to Public Search
One of the key triggers that has brought a more mature & professional audience to Facebook has been the privacy that only people whom you accept as friends can see your profile – this however may just be an illusion so I am finding out!
So will google find my zombies on Facebook!!! Or how much booze MrBoozeMail has sent me???
The public search listing launched last night will provide, at most, the name and profile picture of any Facebook member that has their search privacy settings set to Everyone. While the information is minimal it is there with a picture! – better change those Hasselhof pictures to a nice picture now eh!
So when looking for a job or someone is seeking professional information on you, will your potential employer find this in the first instance above linkedIn or other things you have done in your life that are online?
In my opinion this is simply another step towards the loss of privacy online… A friend of mine who is very tech savvy has completely removed himself from Facebook already! Do we want a paper trail of everything we have done online to be viewable by the audience in a few years!!! I don't…
So I post this question to you, the audience?…
