Really?
Within the last two days my Facebook inbox was riddled with "Don't add (named individual) on your Facebook account." It was a warning tell me to be leery about adding friends for fear my account my become compromised, or worse, deleted.
While I appreciate the concern my friends have for my Facebook account (honestly), wouldn't Facebook have come out with a world-wide warning -- cautioning its users to only add people they trust to their accounts?
I've been adding a lot of people to my friends list on Facebook, so I was a little concerned at first. However, after doing a little research, I found out that it seems to be another case of someone pulling the wool over all of our eyes. Click Here.
No worries, and no harm done.
So that said, I'm considering adding a page on Facebook for those that want to receive updates on what I'm doing. I'll update it with my blog, adventures I'm going on, etc. What say you?

I would love to see more info on Facebook. I certainly don't spend enough time on there already:)
Oopsadaisy!! I've just asked you to be my friend on FB LOL!! So hopefully it wasn't me they were saying not to add..........I am quite harmless and carry no viruses - well apart from the common cold that is - ha!

I'd enjoy such a page on Facebook, Don. I enjoy following your thoughts and feelings both here and on Twitter (I'm @Smee81) so I'd like it on Facebook as well.
Might I ask which is your Dad's official page on Facebook? His Tweets suggest that we should follow him, but there are a number of 'Donny Osmond''s listed there... which is the legitimate one?
Thanks Don!
Hope you're having a great Tuesday!
That's cool, Don. I thought maybe you really didn't want people to know what you are doing on facebook. I guess that's why you don't have the comment box (or wall thingy) on your page. I didn't know you could leave that off.
I know my friend doesn't have a wall thingy on his page and if I want to talk to him, I have to PM'd him, but that's ok. He does get back to me when he's on.
I have become addicted to FB, I like updates. I like Shundra did not know you could hide your updates and wall.
So basically you are going to create a fan page?? ha ha ! I don't mind since I'm actually a friend and fan of yours!
Don,
I hardly read your blog daily anymore, not that I don't enjoy your musings. Just that mama C. has converted me to facebook. Which has been great because I can visit with my nieces, which otherwise are to busy to call me. So I find it great! So now I am a big fan of FB! So I think it would be fun to read about what you think on FB! BY the way love your blog on Mormon TImes!
I must admit Don, I couldn't understand why you were accepting 'friends' but no one could see any activity on there...so yes, please allow updates on your page...:)
Shundra, I just tweeted you regarding your question to Don about number of updates on Twitter.(Just in case Don didn't reply...:)) By the way in case you didn't know who I was on Twitter I'm ddiva5263
