Open Facebook: Soon?

Posted by: Jared Kim on: September 23, 2006

I just got this announcement on my facebook:

More Privacy Controls

Last week we asked you guys what privacy controls you thought were necessary for the upcoming expansion. We read all of your suggestions and we have built these controls:

  • Hide yourself from all people in a type of network (e.g. people only in a region, high schoolers) in searches.
  • Prevent people in those networks from messaging, poking and adding you as a friend.
  • Control whether your picture shows up in your search listing.

These controls are all under the Search section of the My Privacy page. As always, please send us feedback here.

These features make me think they’re gearing up to go public soon. In the future, if a college student only wants to be seen by other college students, he/she can set that in the privacy options. Therefore, his/her overall collegiate Facebook experience will stay the same.. hopefully.

In other news: I’m in my 3rd/4th week of college and life has been busy.
