The 2 Different Views of Friends Lists and Friends Of Lists

Regarding the "Friends" list and the "Friends of" list: There are two views as you may / may not already know. One is the vertical view you get when you select "Friends" from the above tab menu and the other in the "About me" page. (Some people don't like to show these lists // others like me, prefer to display the public view // unfortunately public view does involve some policing) I find it easier to make a comparison from the view in the "About Me" page because I can see BOTH at a glance (Although they are listed Horizontally) and therefore makes it easier to pick out new entries. But you have to have it selected in the about me page... Look at mine --->>> Click Here

I selected to show "Friends" and "Friend of" lists. The options are one or the other, both or neither. I can clearly see what is going on by viewing that page. I can also quickly delete potentially harmfull or undesirable people who have made me "their" friend but have a porn site or something like that which I have no desire to be associated with. Just go to their site and view a few comments or guestbook entries... and make a decision...Good Luck!!!

If you need any help with this let me know!!! Cheers!!! Gary

Security Issues of "Friends Of Lists"

Keep an eye on who is appearing on your "Friends of" list. Look at their site... If you don't like what you see, delete them!!! Remember even porn mongers can have an eye for good photography and if by browsing they come across your site and like what they see, they might add you to their friends lists which AUTOMATICALLY makes them appear on YOUR "Friends of" list until you delete them!!! ... Good luck!!! Gary
