My Digital FootPrint

From: Sean Dockray A roadmap for an effective Facebook suicide should do some of the following: catching as many viruses as possible; click on as many ?Like? buttons as possible; join as many groups as possible; request as many friends as possible. Wherever there is the possibility for action, take it, and take it without any thought whatsoever. Become a machine for clicking! Every click dissolves the virtual double that Facebook has created for you. It disperses you into the digital lives of others you hadn?t thought of communicating with. It confuses your friends. It pulls all those parts of the world that your social network refuses to engage with back into focus, makes it present again. Other alternatives:- - stick to facebook and provide rubbish data. “database vandalism!” - "fakebook" where you do not use your real name and fill your profile with nonsense information.

Internet players wrestling for control of your footprint Whatever the personal reason for joining and participating in social networking, the debate has moved from being fashionable to how the key social networking players can unwittingly extend their influence and control of you.   Facebook wants to move from the confines of their own social networking cloud and be able to monitise property outside of their immediate control; hence the introduction by Facebook of opengraph and ‘Like’. The understanding of these new tools is, however, being over shadowed by the privacy setting debate which is also critical to the new Facebook model and its new utility.  The privacy setting allows Facebook to gain relationship data (digital footprint) and together with the tools change the internet from a Google ad centric world, into a relationship dependant Facebook ad centric world.   Issue 101. Control of Privacy settings It has become evident that social networks will live or die by their privacy p
