Social networking sites make it easy to keep your friends up-to-date on your life,but they can also broadcast your infomation to people you don't know.
You should regularly check their privacy options to make sure you're not publicising yourself more than you want.On Facebook,click the "Privacy"link at the top right corner of the page to see the dozens of different setting available.The most important ones are under the "Profile" category,but you should also familarise yourself with the site's "Limited Profile"feature,which lets you present a subset of your infomation to people outsite your circle of close friends.
MySpace doesn't provide nearly as many options,but it's still worth checking them: Log into your account,click the "Settings" button in the box below your profile picture,and then click the "Privacy" link to adjust who can see your profile(everybody over 18,or only your friends) and if people can see when you're on line.
