After my virgin attempt at blogging back in August 2007, I virtually, in every sense of the word, disappeared from the blogging scene. Reason being (1) I completely forgot my blog name, until I tried to create yet another blog today (2) I was just too busy... how typically Singaporean.
Anyway, back to the present. I have got a Facebook friend's request yesterday. And I took 24 hours to decide if I should include this fellow as my friend. No, he is not some long-time old flame which I'm worried about spilling the beans on me. He is a colleague. I hesistated to include him as my friend cos plainly, his friends, which are my other colleagues will clearly be able to start the request and before long, my Facebook will be full of my colleagues... I can already hear some of you saying.. "Wait a minute, isn't that the point?"
No, not for me. Facebook is a personal thing. I keep it for people i don't work with. Why? Becos I play that Fluffball thing during office hour! BUT besides that... I'm really not that close to my colleagues to want to share who my friends are, what's happening in my life, whether my Fluff won or lost a race. Already, I see them and chat with them 8 hours a day... surely that enough to drive some of us mad... So,.. decision is, I'll not have colleagues in my FACE/book.
Now,... just how do I undo that 'acceptance' of the request...
Damn it.

I am not sure if you can remove friends but at least you can restrict them to "limited profile" and you can decide what they can see under your profile. You can do this under privacy.
