Between the blog and the twit is the posterous one
An online media strategist for business and government, this is my part-time photo blog and less sporadic essay spot. For those times I feel like writing more than the 140-character limitation of Twitter (@ariherzog), and when I don't want to create a new blog post at http://ariwriter.com, I am here.
You have two choices: Delete your Facebook account or...
...go to great lengths checking and unchecking buttons to hide personal data (friends, pictures) from the world.
The below two paragraphs frame the beginning of:http://m.gawker.com/site?t=XkFSzNcDNWm5jIiCviJFFg&sid=gawker "Facebook's privacy pullback isn't just outrageous; it's a landmark turning point for the social network. Facebook has blundered before, but the latest changes are far more calculated. The company has, in short, turned evil. Its new privacy policy have turned the social network inside out: millions of people have signed up because Facebook offers a sense of safety. "For the last five years -- as long as you're relatively careful about who you accept as your friends -- what you do and say on Facebook for the most part stays on Facebook. Katie Couric's daughter first posted pictures of her famous mom dancing silly in 2006, but it took three years for them to leak to us . (Thank you tipsters!)

In an open letter to his 350 million+ users, CEO Mark Zuckerberg claimed he believed the old privacy framework was "no longer the best way for you to control your privacy," and that the new system would give people "even more control of their information." It would be "simpler" and finer-grained." Click the above link to keep reading. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Feeling bad for shoppers lured in by these 70% off video signs...
Blockbuster Video is projected to close all their stores in 2010, and this Newburyport, Mass. franchise will end in January. As such, everything is on sale -- but the discount gets deeper every few weeks. It was 40, then 50, then 60...I am waiting for it to get to 80 and 90 for the real deals.
