The problem with Facebook’s privacy settings is that they can become a pain to implement when you have lots of friends and so, you’d almost have to devote a good day to putting people in their groups.

I need to do it though, because it would make browsing easier and make me less likely to have to do the awkward dance of deleting all but a few people and having the ones on the outside wonder why.

As for Twitter, I what you’re saying about transparency is important and true. I think it’s part of why I don’t like having my twitter status broadcast on Facebook (though sometimes, I do) because I like to Tweet things that FB folks don’t really need to know. But it’s strange for me, since I don’t have much overlap between the two worlds, I imagine if I did, it wouldn’t matter as much.

But this topic has been on my mind a lot lately too, so thanks for opening the door on the conversation.
