Facebook Groups...How to Remove Them From Your Profile [#permalink] New post   27 Jan 2009, 19:50

All,

I posted this over on BW for all of you that are dying to join your school's Facebook group and learn about your future classmates, but at the same time don't want your coworkers or boss to find out you are leaving. This set of instructions walks you through removing the groups list from your profile page. Enjoy!!

After you log in, from the home page there should be a grey block on the right side of the screen that says "Applications". At the top of the box you have things listed like Photos, Groups, Pirates, etc. Click on the top right button that says 'Edit'.

It should take you to a screen that says Application Settings - Recently Used. If Groups isn't listed then change the drop down to 'Bookmarked' or something else until you see 'Groups' listed. Click 'Edit Settings' and then select the 'Profile' tab. Where it says 'Info Section', choose 'Remove'. Then click Okay. Check your Profile page and it should be gone.

Once you start using Facebook, say goodbye to your privacy. I joined some MBA-related group and that damned thing announced it on my home page, or wall, or whatever they call it. Luckily I caught that on time. Just by looking at my list of friends one can learn where I work, where I used to work, where my girlfirend works. With all the photos posted and the tagging function, now the whole world can learn (if they bother to do the digging) where I spent my last vacation and with whom. I know this is insane, but I keep using it. Go figure.

I *can't stand* the photo tagging. It drives me nuts. It makes me want to secretly steal everyone's camera when I'm out with my friends at a bar ;).

The photo/video tagging problem is easily resolved. You can go to Settings --> Privacy Settings --> Profile and change the privacy settings for the photos and videos tagged of you. It even allows you to set it so only you can see them.
