    I saw something on the web this morning that said if you post your full birthday anywhere, you at a higher risk for identity theft. I immediately went onto facebook and deleted the year of my birth.

    I never post my full d.o.b. anywhere. And since there appears to be so much talk everywhere of problems with Facebook, I just deleted my account since I never went there anywhere. I only joined in the first place at the urging of an old school friend.

    My year of birth is nearly everywhere that I register. There isn't much identity to steal from me, though, so i'm not all that worried.

    Reggie,

    I hear ya. My attitude is, they want my identity that bad, let 'em take it!! My credit sucks and I have no credit cards so there's no loss there.
