FaceBook Everywhere

Facebook Everywhere



It's hard to find an individual who or a corporation that isn't on Facebook. The social networking site has become an ever-present hub for everything online. For some less savvy users, Facebook is the Internet.

With developments like Facebook Connect and Open Graph , Facebook is virtually opening its doors to any third party that wants in on the action. You may have already noticed that Facebook displays ads targeting your specific demographic information, based on the personal information you've posted and activities you've participated in.

What you might not have noticed is that other sites have started targeting your Facebook demographics as well. Any time you browse the Web without first logging out of Facebook, other sites can get access to any profile information you've marked as fit for public consumption.

Don't want every site on the Internet to see you coming a mile away? Just remember to log out of Facebook every time.
