I read this article in Reader's Digest about how to clean up your online profile. What I really appreciate about the article is that it gives really good tips for people (like me) who think that they have done nothing questionable online.
My though on the whole iSpy issue is that I really have done nothing I am ashamed of. I mean, I'm a pretty clean-cut kid. The article brings up a few little things, though, that potential employers could be find questionable about my online profile.
For example, people have not been hired in the past because of things they've written on other people's walls. I know, I know, it's their own dumb fault, but some of the comments are things that we wouldn't normally think of as being vocationally harmful.
So, that is all to say that my profile is now limited only to actual friends.

I did the same thing! I had to go and change my settings on both my Myspace and Facebook pages. However, unlike you, I have things to hide. I am a crazy kid, what can I say?! haha But I do think it's a great idea for anyone who will potentially be looking for employment in the near future and tends to have a very "colorful" facebook page
