should i get facebook?

[~~*smile*~~]

how much privacy do you get?
as much as you want. you can limit everything to private, just friends, logged in only, or everyone to see it.

can you delete your account if you decide you dont like it?(and what happens if you do)?
you can delete it and if you do its gone.

how much of my personal information will be posted on the web?
as much as you want to

and what about this thing that ive heard about facebook recording what sites you've been to and posting them on your profile? (is there any way to restrict that?)
its called newsfeed. it just posts if you commented on peoples pics, or if you got a new application, you can just delete the ones you dont want people to see,,

hope i helped.
