UPDATE: Facebook has begun rolling out new and simplified privacy settings for some users. Many of the tips in this series still directly apply however.

- Facebook Wall posts can be searched for on search engines like Google.

- You can change this from your profile page.

- Just go to your profile page, then Options, then Settings.

- Under Who can see posts made by friends, make your selection.

- If you select custom, you can once again choose from friends, friends of friends, or custom.
