How to manage Facebook Privacy Settings in 4 easy steps.

Few Words:

         Dear Friends...If you are an early Facebook user, then you should

probably remember those carefree days where people would have

interesting conversations and share things freely.Dnt Take it Easy as

you Think.

Due to Large Traffic on FB,Your friend's list grew from 10 people to

100, and for some of us at least, it's just kept on growing, and the only

things that people feel comfortable sharing today are serious

sounding articles, and pictures of babies, pictures of food, and

pictures of cats. Oh and a plethora of wince inducing articles with bad

headlines, and some other "features" of that ilk, such as Bitstrips.

Now in Facebook...The great thing about Facebook is that there's a

pretty robust set of tools available to keep things under control.

The bad thing is that they keep changing the way things are managed

and it's nearly impossible to keep on top of things.

Here's how it works for now though...

The tips and tricks we are describing work almost exactly the same

whether you're on a tablet or a computer,

but...we'd recommend sitting down with a PC for a little while for this,

because it is really a lot faster that way.

Just See These Steps...

1. Creating Lists:

The first thing you need to do is create lists for your friends. Go to

your friends list, and when you see the list of names, click on the

Friends button next to each name on your computer (or tap on it if

you're on a mobile device, obviously) and in the menu that pops up,

mark them as Acquaintances or Add to another list..., where you can

create new lists.


This is the first and most essential step, but the more friends you

have, the harder this becomes. Do make a "real life" list for the 10

people who are really your close friends, and whom you can have fun

with on Facebook. Do not add them as Close friends because that's

Facebook's secret stalker mode, where you'll see every minute activity

they ever perform on the social network.

Once you've managed to mark all seven million people and relaxed a

little (you'll need it) then you can move on to step two.

2. To Controlling access:

Go to Facebook's Privacy Settings page (that's the one with the lock

icon, or just click here). Who can see my stuff? is a biggie, and we

recommend setting that to a Custom list.

Each time you make a fresh post on the computer, you can change

the privacy settings, but this also changes the default. Be careful and

watch for the little gear icon when you post.

3. Clean up your all history:

In the old days, you probably put up a lot of party pics, and wrote

things you're not proud of anymore, right? Well, that's going to haunt

you when it's time to apply for a new job, because employers are

checking your social profile these days. So click on Use Activity Log

to check the things you're tagged in, and Limit Past Posts to let only

people in your "real life" friends list see old posts. See? Told you that

would come in handy.



4. Contacts, privacy and security Protection:

Most of us want to be easy to find on Facebook - but if you're

concerned about your safety, then you might not want people to be

able to search for you on the social network simply if they've gotten

your number from somewhere. You can change the settings for Who

can send your friend requests, or Who can look you up using the

email address you provided etc. from the same Privacy Center, if you want.

I think u have learned everything.Best of Luck
