How do You define Facebook wall spam?
Some say it’s the barrage of pokes and wall posts that they receive, while others count chain letters and stories like ‘Alexandra’s’ as spam.
Others still will stand up and voice their concern about applications that are still trying to get around the ‘no forced invite rules’ by limiting features until a certain number of invitations are sent out.
Privacy is the concern of a lot of people on Facebook, and the company is continuing to make changes to protect its users, including allowing members to organise family, friends and work colleagues into different groups.
This allows them to choose who sees what on their profile.
Of course, how we ourselves treat others counts too, and we need to be aware that we could be causing discomfort for them too.
This satirical video from the BBC shows what it may be like in real life, if we all behaved the way some do on sites such as Facebook.
The video features the comedy sketch group, Idiots of Ants
The message has to be choose your friends well, be careful what information you make public, and perhaps most importantly, treat others in the same way that you wish to be treated.
