The King of Social Networking

With over more than 800 million active users and its availability in more then 70 languages, Facebook is the most powerful social networking site in the world and at only 7 years old is still growing rapidly.

The site killed off all competition like MySpace and Bebo with its features like instant messaging, a quick and easy photo uploading and sharing and a simple/un-changeable profile view with a simple way of finding yours friends and 'Like' yours interests. The sites aim along with communication, is for its users to 'share'. Users sharing information such as sex, age, nationally, address, education, work and more is how the site makes its money and is how Mark Zuckerberg took this from his Harvard dorm room to the world stage with an estimated value now of about $70 billion.
But is this too much? . . .
Thats the question on many peoples lips. Facebooks Privacy Policy has always been questioned because unless you opt-out anything you share on the site can be seen be anyone who clicks on your page, friend or not. And as we all know everyone does abit of 'facebook stalking...' so if you do it to others its most likely gets done to you. Intimate details like the ones facebook asks you to share,and photos you've been tagged in, in the wrong hands can be dangerous and thats why the updated privacy settings are recommended.
Yesterday, the 'sharing' was taken a step further when the Facebook Timeline opened in New Zealand.
Now not only are you asked to share the stuff about you your since you started your facebook account, but your asked to share your entire past since teh day you were born.

This changed profile will be relased to the rest of the world in 2012, but only time will tell if the amount facebook is asking us to share is too much.
