Blast from the past

You know, with FB, there are all sorts of controls. You can "hide" people if you don't feel like getting updates about how some random person from 20 years ago is going to get a latte at Starbucks this afternoon. They are still your FB friends, and you can go look at their pictures and stuff if you choose, but you can keep them at arms length too.

Also, if you want to upload 150 old family photos to have a nostalgic time with your relatives looking at and comment on them, you can choose exactly who gets to see those pictures. You won't have the random Starbucks latte guy above making comments about the plaid pants and bowl cut you had when you were ten.

FB allows you to control a lot. Share what you want. Keep private what you want.
