Facebook just rolled out their new "Community Pages" feature. It has basically replaced the "Become a fan" feature and updated the Interests/about me section. They're now linked with this new thing ... erm, bad explanation but you'll see what I mean when you go update your profile.

Go to your profile (Info tab), there'll be a new box to update your profile.

Anyhow, my point is:

You can now choose to hide your friends list and what you're a fan of! Previously this was always public information.

However, you will still appear on Community Pages if you mention the topic in your status update. For example, if you say "I love cooking and indie music" your status will appear on the Cooking and Indie Music Community Pages.

If I "like" something, will it appear on everyone's feed?

I posted about this problem with privacy just yesterday, as it happens.

Just spent ages updating my privacy settings on Facebook ... so many options.

They're missing a couple of things though, in my opinion:

- Ability to show/hide pages (things that you've become a fan of)
- Ability to show/hide friends list

I'm mainly concerned about Pages - I'd like to be able to choose who to show that to, at the moment it's always visible (even to people that don't have a Facebook account).
Yeah Ive noticed that too. One day some political discussion came up between my parents and my mum said 'Yeah, Alex wants Joe Hockey to be the PM in 2011'. I asked how the hell she knew that and said 'you need to change your privacy settings on facebook'.

What do you mean by everyone's feed?

If you "like" something you will appear on the list of people that "like" this something, on the Community Page itself

If you "like" something it will appear on your friend's news feeds.

Yeah, that's the same as before. If you became a fan of something then that'd appear on your friends feeds.

Some people are upset because there seems to be no option to stop your status updates from appearing on community pages.
