THREE RULES FOR FACEBOOK
Treat Facebook as if it were a postcard left by the office water cooler/coffee maker/gin bottle
Never bad mouth or argue with a lover/partner/friend on Facebook even if you are about to break up, especially if you are about to break up
Don’t embarrass yourself or anyone else. Facebook photos never die. They are on the hard drive of a server in Oregon and it looks like they could be there forever.

It’s scary.
Those aren’t the ones I find scary….for me it’s the blurring of the line between the private and the public hence my number one rule which I think everyone should follow…
