Ron,
I asked about the social network links in our posts. I find no posted announcement of their addition here or what their purpose is. I thought CC was my social/technical network. I know that 9-year olds understand their purpose but I don't-never turned my attention to or participated in their universe.
Since I have no knowledge of or use for them I don't know other than the basic-that people can talk on them and companies can harvest info from them.
Do they give someone the ability to 'tweet' or post elsewhere any member's text or photos? Without them knowing or approving? How does it work?
I know this is the 21st century and this is SOP stuff these days so we can all squirm in the same information bed-but an explanation of its need and operation before its appearance would have been appreciated. As well as the option to decline participation. I know we're not copyright-protected here nor are our pics secure to the world.
If it was announced or explained, show me where as I obviously missed it.
