It’s too confusing to lock my front door. I’ll just leave it unlocked. It’s ok.
The guy who built my house installed a door with a faulty lock but instead of having a locksmith install a new lock I’ll get the carpenter to patch my door up and leave the same lock. It’s ok.
Everyone else on the block is using the same lock. Someone with a key can come unlock all our doors. What are the chances they will unlock mine. I don’t do anything interesting inside anyway. It’s ok.
I don’t want to use a key. I have too many keys. I can’t remember where they all are. I’ll just not have a key. It’s ok.
*sigh* It’s not ok.

“Friends” = “Public” … Really Facebook???

Rant Incoming…

So there I am testing a wordpress plugin that automatically posts to FB when you post on your blog. Nifty little thing. Ran into something quirky so I decided to visit my FB settings. Everything looked copasetic until I decided to view my wall as “public”. Seeing as I have my settings to show my wall to “Friends”, it should show a blank wall.

It did not. WTF???

Ok, so there was a repost of someone else’s post that was most likely public. I get that. That’s fine.

*scroll* *scroll* *scroll*

WAIT. Here’s a post I wrote. No links to anything. No pictures. Nothing. Just me typing some words. THAT should be ONLY visible to FRIENDS ONLY because, you know, *POINTS* that’s what I have it set to!!!

Facebook… really… I… *GRRRRRRRR* …

I have some decisions to make.

To be continued…

Come on in! It’s ok.
