The ads on your page appear with the help of net robots with bad sense of humor. What does it mean? If you mentioned, say, that you are "allergic to hip-hop" get ready to receive these very hateful hip-hop mp3' along with antihistamines' promos.
On the other hand, if you do not reveal enough info, how potential friends will find you? The answer is just trying to be careful, in particular with so called "funny questionnaires". They may discover to everybody too many interesting facts about you. For example, that your favorite relaxation is family sex shooting or that you suffer of foot myco.
If you especially enjoy your friend's last birthday party striptease snapshot that does not mean you should share your delight with the whole world. Let your friend choose on-lineable pictures her or himself. The same refers to exposing any interesting facts of your friends' life.
And, better avoid using a wide-spread option of "by importance" gradation of friends. It may really hurt somebody.
Written text cannot express all the nuances of spoken language. When you address your friend like "Hey you jerk" after a next round of beer at your friends' table, it sounds playfully and innocently. The same words on Facebook page look offensive and aggressively.
Imagine that you have invited your best friend, your first girlfriend, your boss and your grandma to the same party. Absurd? Not necessary: still you have a chance to have a nice party. Another pair of shoes is all these people in your net group. Each person tends to wear different mask in different off-line communities. You hardly want to inform your boss or your grandma that your favorite link is, for example, an Asian porno catalogue.
When you carefully select the best photo deserved to be placed on-line, take thought about some possible consequences.
You look great in this red bikini on the beach, much better than in that grey coat near your office. You even cannot imagine how many lonely voyeurs would agree with you. Do you want their playsome offers in you mailbox?
Why? Because you leave the undoubted evidences after you. Endless status changing alone tells a sad story of your alcoholic descent to everybody. Rambling messages will fill up a canvas. Mind the morning after and turn off the PC.
If you suddenly notice that you've been deleted from somebody's "friends" don't be upset: it's nothing personal. It's just impossible to process so much correspondence people receive today and successfully combine it with other activities, like for example, such small worries of life as family and work.
On the other hand, if you are invited to become anybody's friend, don't be hurry and think it over first. As perhaps you also have your work and your family.

Do not mix different groups
