• RE: The Definitive Facebook Lockdown Guide - Securing your profile page

  This is a much needed article.
  
  It shows exactly where to change setting. However, it does not tell how to get there. Please add UI navigation information. Thanks.

    this is where common sense prevails. if people can't work out to click on 'account' and read the menu that appears, i feel they shouldn't be using a computer

      Hey, we're not all geniuses like you think you are. Now back away from that computer before you hurt yourself.

      @techguru@... So my 72 year old mother shouldn't be allowed to use her computer because YOU don't think she's smart enough? You're no Guru.

  I agree. The information is much needed. But even more needed (and not shown) is how to access the settings described. Without describing how to access the settings, the article is rather useless. :(

  It would be helpful if this information were made available in a PDF File. While the information is exceellent; there are too many pages to scroll through to capture all the settings in it's entirety.

    @Tom Neri <br>I agree: all that in a pdf-file for download would be best, esp. for people with slow connections or older operating systems. Thanks for the work!

  These UK pages are just different enough from their American counterparts to be annoying.

  Content - good, apparently.
  Site - slow (or images - big?).
  Usability - poor.
  I got bored after the 4th page due to slow downloads and lack of 'flow'.

  Would be nice to download this in a pdf file... I'm not a fan of clicking thru this quagmire to find what I want.

    @Rob S. I'm looking into this. Preliminary draft already done - just needs editorial on it.

      I also would like to get a copy of the PDF, when it is ready. I also volunteer to act as a "reviewer," if that would be helpful.

      @zwhittaker When the PDF is ready to go, are you going to let those that want that file made aware that its available?

      Thanks - will you publish it here? I would like to send it out to all users in my school district - they will read it in a pdf, but not click through all the screens.

  Very helpful information. Would be more helpful if I was shown
  how to access the settings,Would be nice to download this in a pdf file where I could print it out and be able to perform the steps without having to jump between this article and facebook to make the changes.

    it's not that difficult, stop yelling , calm down and look at your facebook page. read the buttons. use your brain and think which button do i click to change things about my 'ACCOUNT'
    
    then simply follow the menu. if too hard close computer and use phone to talk to friends

      @techguru@... But account does not go to the page being displayed. I tried all the buttons. Is this unique to the UK version of facebook?
