I know someone who’s set up several different friend lists within Facebook, each with varying levels of openness. Some allow his friends to see everything he posts, including status, photos and contact info, and other lists carry only the bare minimum of details.

Point is, there’s some ways to limit your exposure to only your closest friends. It can be time consuming to create those lists, but it’s worth it if you have a lot of “friends” of varying closeness and want to cut down on the personal exposure.

If you take your mouse and run it over the left side of someone’s status, you will see a little button that says “HIDE” If you press it, you can opt to hide that friend’s status updates and quizzes.

If you hate the quizzes, you can block all the quizzes from all your friends.
