And the sting is in the tail. "to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such User Content, and to grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing." means that they can sell any of your details and anything you post, to any one, anywhere, without informing you,, and you can do sweet nothing about it. Oh yes, you could take it to court, in the USA. But how much can you afford to spend? You bet Fakebook has deeper pockets.

Cheers,

It's your life. Just make sure you read and understand the terms of service. Anything you post (including all those photos of their kids people like to
put up) belong to the Face Borg.

And if you're not sharing real information, what's the point?

Have fun.

Just a quick congratulations to Kurtis and Russell for the birding groups
on
Facebook. It is lovely to see that both groups are being joined. And for those who are dubious about Facebook.....you are the master of your own
profile!!

A positive thought on a wee bit  gloomy of a day in Newcastle!
