Happy Saturday Folks.
I read this today as a link from a G+ post and immediately thought of this club. I don’t post in this club much but as this was such a hoot – I thought it might give everyone a laugh too —
Why Social networks should be more like Facebook Poke
It relates a story I am sure you are all familiar with – I KNOW I am!
Enjoy.

Just to be clear – I agree with everything Mike Elgan said in the article – FB is too convoluted for anyone to know who is getting what and when. Even the Zuckerbergs can’t figure it out!

The article was spot on – my (repeated) caveat – the unintended consequence of children playing with billions in cash and petabytes of data – it’s like the machine on the TV show “Person of Interest” it knows and sees everything and can’t be shut down. It’s always fun until some gets hurt in the eye (Randi). I was far more (self perceived) invincible at 24 than I am at 60. What’s even more interesting is the growth of the Facebook/Bing relationship which will evolve into a real SEO game changer

I disagree. I am a firm believer of “if you don’t want the world to see your picture, then don’t post it… period.” Privacy settings or not you can’t stop someone from doing something you don’t want them to.

Randi Zuckerberg – former senior executive. I know I am wrong in this but my firm belief is that a senior executive should be a bit brighter than this – give sis a job to keep her quiet and she will go away when she gets bored.
Beyond this I really don’t get a lot out of the article. We all know that if you post anything on a social network, generally speaking, it is out in the public – whether it is a smaller group or the larger whole. Social networking is such that information is shared and passed on – that is how we as marketers now survive.

I’m digging the new Poke app for iPhone. Has some really neat features and is quite fun.

@supereb The snafu made me roll my eyes. I agree with @dain-hanson and @waylyn2012 about posting to social media sites. It’s more public than private. Even emails get forwarded unintentionally (think the dreaded “Reply All”). Still it would be nice to have simpler privacy settings instead of having to wade through umpteen layers…

OH, I completely agree – if it’s private it does not belong on the web or the internet, period. Even email is not nearly as safe as people think it is.
But FB has “privacy” so wrong as to perhaps not even understand the meaning of the word! And the way it is presented on their platform simply does not make any kind of thinking person sense, at all, and never has.
