For some reason, Arthur Uther Pendragon (AKA Druid King of Britain) has had his Facebook Page blocked because some nerd has decided it isn't his real name!! |

Thanks to you all - I'll get daughter to read this thread before I take any action. Emma - it is exactly this "privacy" idea that makes me cautious. I have no wish to fill it up with day to day personal trivia, but might be happy to get in touch with long lost friends. How much do I give away if I follow the Facebook pages of organisations (eg GR!) I appreciate Rollo's comment that Facebook knows all about me anyway, as I find Google does! |

I have found more advantages than disadvantages in using FB. I like its facilities. |

Goodness knows! Ask your daughter to help you and lock it up as tight as she can. |

I am seriously thinking of signing up for Facebook - I feel I am missing out on a lot of things I can only reach on Facebook. But I do also read a lot of cautionary tales, including the ones on a very recent thread. |
