How to Hide Your Tagged Photos in Facebook

Posted on January 18, 2010 by greenbucks| 3 Comments

Friends and family love to tag you in photos taken with them when they post these photos in Facebook’s albums.

But when embarrassing photos come out for everyone to ogle at and talk about, you tell yourself, “Oh nooooo!!!!”

So you want to hide these tagged photos especially that one where it looks like you need the best acne treatment but don’t know how?

Here’s how:

  • Go to the clickable “Settings” on the top right of your Facebook page
  • Click the “Privacy Settings” when the menu drops down
  • Click on “Profile Information” and you will see a lot of choices like About Me, Personal Info, Birthday, etc
  • Scroll down till you reach “Photos and Videos of Me” Photos and videos you’ve been tagged in

facebook

  • Click that button and choose your preference whether you want “everyone”, “friends of friends”, “only friends” and “custom”
  • Custom setting will let you choose “Only Me”

So there. No need to un-tag your tagged photos nor have everyone see you in your third grade photo 😀

Supervising Children’s Online Activities

Posted on January 3, 2010 by greenbucks| Leave a comment

That children are tech-savvy these days,there is no doubt about it.

Why, even my children who are in early grades have an account (one account for both of them) in a popular social networking site. They use it primarily to play the games there.

When children are doing these, parents should be nearby to supervise their accounts. It is unwise to let them do unsupervised online activities using a laptop computer.

Even  if parents lecture about not divulging private information like home addresses, email addresses and phone numbers, still parental guidance is recommended (yes, I sound like a tv ad but this is very important).

Oh wait, before I forget, even parents or adults need some supervision too when it comes to supervising their privacy settings in these SNS.

Have you checked your privacy settings lately?
