Thanks, Facebook, I think you botched it again

You see, I'm pretty sure I had my wall visible to everyone before your meddling. My posts were set by default to be invisible to a couple of groups of people; since permissions for individual posts can't be set from phones, this seemed the way to handle things for when I'm out and about. If I really wanted a post to be visible to all friends or a broader group, then I'd find a PC for that status update, link, etc.

Now, it seems you've gone and "fixed" things so that individuals in my default "no-see" categories can't see my wall and, therefore, the posts I intended for them. Giving them the ability to see the posts they should apparently means setting the default for new posts to a visibility level I did not desire. My friend was right, I suppose, when he said during our BSD arguments that simpler just means having fewer options.

Can you be any more annoying?

Playing with FaceBook apps: What Element Are You?

I used to find FaceBook apps immensely annoying, but they're starting to grow on me. I'm not sure if they are changing, or if I am. I'm still not going to be in any games that glorify crime or criminals, and I'm not so much into racing, but there seem to be plenty of things out there for the RPG-lover and strategy game addict I've been known to be. The latest of the apps I've given in to is the one that determines which element you resemble. As with my Inner Nationality Quiz results, I was not expecting the answer I got. Metal? me? really?
