Users of Facebook, the current media obsession du jour, have a nasty surprise in store. 'Starting today,' the company announced last Wednesday, 'we are making limited public search listings available to people who are not logged into Facebook. We're expanding search so that people can see which of their friends are on Facebook more easily... In a few weeks, we will allow these public search listings (depending on users' individual privacy settings) to be found by search engines like Google... We think this will help more people connect and find value from Facebook without exposing any actual profile information or data.' 還有三四段下文 請自己找一下
