Status: MemberDescription: Bnetters Against Activity Feed! is an ecumenical, cross-platform, "SINGLE ISSUE VOTER" kind of group!! The intrusive Activity Feed should either be removed altogether or an ability to OPT OUT should be provided. I like my Bnet Buds otherwise we wouldn’t be friends, but does this mean I want a “shout out” every time I rate a photo, post a comment on someone's profile, change my own profile, write a journal entry or make a new friend? NOOOOO! Let's join hands to register our dissatisfaction with this intrusion by visiting the PETITION thread! We’re not Facebook, MySpace or Linked In! We’re Beliefnet! :) As members of Bnetters Against Activity Feed! you have an opportunity to register your discontent with this alleged “enhancement” initiated by Beliefnet in June of 2008. Despite assurances from staff that they're "looking into" methods to either disable this feature or make it optional, nearly 4 months later nothing has been done. At first glance, this is a very small problem. Yet when you place these Activity feeds in the larger context of online privacy, FISA and how the accessibility of online information plays into counter-terrorism meaures, perhaps this problem isn't as small or unimportant as first meets the eye! Bnet Administration modeled the activity feed after Face Book. Are you aware that Facebook members protested against this to the point that Face Book woke up and made it optional? http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/0,8599,1532225,00.html

Name:Status: MemberDescription: Inner Poetry is the unique expression of Divinity found within each of us. This group is a place for sharing the truth and beauty of your own soul. Here you can post your creative works...be they poems, essays, stories, meditations, words of inspiration or wisdom, or you can simply come in and share in the words of others. All are welcome. Please make each new work a new post. On those entitled "Starter," a word or line has been given as just that...a thought to inspire and prompt its finishing...with a single word, line, phrase or free-flowing thoughts, or as an entire poem, story or essay. Make this space one to explore, to encourage and to share your experience of the Divinity within you and as it touches your life.
