Thanks to Facebook Graph Search, Facebook now posts “related” articles on our behalf. Our friends can see these shares but they are invisible to us!

Wow, now this is definitely NOT cool of Facebook.

I mean, how in the world could you just "assume" that someone "likes" something that "related" to something else. AND, who is Facebook to say what's related to your "likes" and what isn't.

This is exactly why I've not been active on Facebook for a while. You don't have any control over it or what they do with the data from your account. Plus, I just feel that FB has become way too noisy and cluttered for my taste. I'm more of a Twitter gal. And I actually prefer Google+ over FB, not just because they've not incorporated ads...yet. But because they seem to be more in tune with their users and what they need and want. Although, I didn't initially like Google+'s platform, but it has quickly grown on me.

I don't think this will actually make me want to delete my Facebook page, but it'll remain a ghost town until I figure out what I want to do with it.

Great write up, Susan. It's been a while since I've dropped by your site and I'm glad to see that your content is still as valuable as ever. I'll be sure to share this with my social circle.

Keep the great content coming and I look forward to connecting more with you soon.
