I'm now making a stronger distinction between the content, and the redistribution (e.g. retweeting) of it.

I do worry about losing my privacy. Plus frankly it's too many places to go or check (even with the consolidator tools) so I've focusing on the vital few instead. Side note - I hope to see you at Lotusphere in January, we need to meet up.

I have been blogging for quite some time about privacy issues with (mainly) Facebook and how a slight change in their Terms of Service could very well mean your private data could be sold. I have a minimal presence of FB and LinkedIn and I will keep it that way. I think we all need to use social networks with caution and think through the privacy implications. Guess that makes me curmudgeonly too :-) Kim Luiz, you can now join me then.
