From DOTRIGHTS.ORG:
If you want to use the privacy controls that are available, here’s how to do so.
Adjusting Check-In Visibility, Turning “Friend Check-Ins” and “Here Now” Off
Preventing Your Friends’ Apps From Receiving Your Places Info
- Go to your privacy settings page and select “customize settings.”
- Select the Places settings.
- Enable Places? (You may need to enable the product before you can change your settings.)
- Adjust your settings:
- To adjust who can see your check-ins, use the pulldown next to “who can see my location.”
- To disallow friend check-ins, uncheck the “Allow friends to check-in” box.
- To disable Here Now, uncheck the “Here Now” box
- If you want, disable Places.
- Go to your privacy settings page and select “edit my settings” under the “Applications and Websites” title.
- Select “edit settings” next to “info available through my friends.”
- Uncheck the Places check-in box.
Facebook’s become this annoying person in class who you have to talk to because they sometimes have OK parties.
Yep… and this is a complete joke… Borrow Google’s Name and Gowalla and 4Square ideas for checkins… has this fcking crew ever had an idea that wasn’t stolen or copied… at least improve the service… copycat

I’ll never understand Foursquare, etc as I am intensely private in some sectors of my life. Thanks for posting this JT!
