Tips: Use Facebook Lists to Control Your Social Stream
Do you want to keep all your socialness in one place like Facebook, but hesitate every time you go to post about the late night drinking in a place not just your friends, but your family, may see as well? Facebook has controls for that!
Do keep in mind that Facebook is ever evolving and there have been times when permissions and settings have been lost or reset resulting in things that were previously hidden suddenly becoming visible, so be smart and either set up two Facebook accounts (one naughty, one relatively nice) or just don’t post things to the “relatively nice” profile that could get you in serious trouble if the privacy controls fail.
