I did some research into this (on my site http://www.digiwebbs.com) and a result was that a minority of people were very concerned about their privacy online that most users are aware of the privacy risks, but are not concerned...which is quite shocking! can we really blame facebook for this tho? isnt it the users fault for posting this info.

I used to be able to search for my name and find some rather odd posts I had made and what myspace contained about me. I've come to the realisation that employers especially in the tech industry will probably be 'googling' potential employees to see if they have blogs and see what they've been writing about; who wants an employee who has an opinionated blog and could potential be a PR disaster for them? I think that if you are want to keep a profile on myspace then make it only friend accessible, make sure the content would be the stuff you'd want family to see and if you want to share drunken photos then tinypic and msn will do the job just fine.
