Facebook has spun out of control.  A social website that started as a way for college students to communicate and interact is now a mass network open to virtually anyone to join.  With this causes many concerns including the privacy of its users.  Although each individual member is able to control the content at which his/her page reveals, others can post information that can be extremely harmful to the individual.  More drama and problems continue to occur from Facebook’s growth and it seems like the only way to talk to someone anymore is to log on, go to www.facebook.com, and post a message on someone’s wall.
