The OpenGraph API that was announced at Facebook's F8 conference, lets devolopers get at even more of your information than before.. though I'm not exactly sure what they are able to see. If you are reading the articles being pushed out by news sites all over the web, you may even be contemplating figuring out how to delete your information for good. The thought of deleting my own has crossed my mind a few times in the last while. As far as hiding what devolopers have access to, I don't yet know if that's possible.
Looking to lock down your profile and other personal information on Facebook? Not sure where to find all the security seetings in Facebook's great maze? The image below shall be your guide to clamping down on what others may have access to without them even knowing it.
To manage your privacy on Facebook, you will need to navigate through 50 settings with more than 170 options. Facebook says it wants to offer precise controls for sharing on the Internet.
Correction: May 21, 2010
A chart on May 13 with an article in the Personal Tech pages about Facebookâs privacy settings labeled one setting incorrectly. The setting labeled "The 'Like' Button" actually controls the site's "Instant Personalization" feature. The description also referred incorrectly to the function of the Instant Personalization feature. It personalizes web sites based in part on your friends' activity on those sites; it does not use your friends' browsing habits. And the description erroneously listed a company among Facebook partners using the feature. Yelp and Pandora use the feature to personalize their Web sites; CNN does not.
The stats here are kinda creepy if you ask me..
