Set up secure Facebook browsing

Facebook browsing is now more secure with the the ability to enable https.  The setting is turned off by default so you'll need to turn it on.  To do this, log onto Facebook and go to 'Account Settings' in the upper right corner of the screen.  Then on the 'Settings' tab, click 'change' next to the account security section. Then click the check box next to 'Browse Facebook on a secure connection (https) whenever possible'.

How to see if anyone else is logged into your Facebook account

Facebook lets you check the location of your most recent account activity.  You might be surprised to find that your account is logged on somewhere that you haven't been.  Luckily you can disconnect any unknown connections.  To do this you need to go to Facebook and click on 'Account Settings' in the upper right corner of the screen.  Then on the 'Settings' tab, click 'change' next to the account security section. Then if you see an unfamiliar device or location, click "end activity".  You can then set it up so that Facebook will send you an email when a new device logs on.

Want your facebook status to be in an ad? Well, you may have no choice.

Facebook is rolling out a new program that will allow a company to convert your status into an ad. Currently, there's no way to opt out.

This may be great advertising but it just doesn't seem right...
