Facebook

Who hasn't heard of Facebook?  Facebook is a giant platform which recently eclipsed the 500 million mark in users.  Facebook is synonymous with exposure.  With one half of a billion people perusing the site, you can get tremendous exposure.  Exposure can be good or bad.  Some say any publicity is good.  I think there are exceptions.  Large scale exposure can be advantageous but one mistake can have a lingering negative affect.  Be careful with what you put out there.

There are plenty of phish in the internet sea.  The phisherman are waiting and working to get your personal info.  I have had a half dozen attempts by an individual in Germany to access my Facebook account.  Facebook security will prompt you to reset your settings when your account has activity that is unusual and raises a red flag
I am thankful for the Facebook vigilance.

Milestones come and go through our lives.  A milestone of one half billion users is admirable and a testament of the good parts of Facebook.  To celebrate the milestone Facebook Stories has started to tell how Facebook has touched our lives.
