Green Room - Week 26 - Day 5

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

In case you missed the announcement at the end of last night's Green Room - there is now a facebook group for anyone interested in having something else to click "like" on.

The question was asked about if there was a way to set your fb privacy settings so that it didn't show up on your profile. I'll be honest, I have no idea - so I'm going to ASK DR LJ. Or I guess in this case "Ask Programmer LJ".

I'm not planning on really doing much with that group right now. It's mostly a placeholder to have a presence over there, hopefully to help direct people back here. :)

The fine print:

Privacy Settings Friends, Tags and Connections

These settings only control the information people can see on your profile. This information, such as your Pages and list of friends, is still public, so it could appear elsewhere on the site and be accessed by applications you and your friends use.

FB's new internal applications automatically link things, even if (on your profile) something is not displayed. So you might not display LJI on your profile. But someone looking at LJI will see a link back to you automatically. That is what people are worried about.

Good point! I didn't think of that.

Everyone has been talking about the linked interests issue on their profiles. It hasn't happened to my page at all, so I don't even know what it looks like - but it sounds like a pain.

I'm not so worried about people finding me from the LJ Idol FB page. I'm more concerned about people finding the LJ Idol FB page from my profile. And I'm not willing to adjust all my "liked" pages' security just so I can "like" the LJ Idol one. I don't have a problem with people knowing I like the other things because they can't trace me back to my LJ.
