Move your data out of Facebook.

I have had a couple of cases where my Facebook data left me.  One case the FB brute squad deleted some pictures, and I could not get them to tell me which ones.  The second case is my old data seems to be dropping off the end of some time fence.  You really have no control of your data in Facebook, once it is in there.  There is no way to back it up or export it either.

Now I'm wiring up blogger to host the data that I want to keep.  Photobucket or some other picture site will be my repository for that media.  First is my recipe data.  Then the goofy stuff like Zombie lyrics.  I'll probably resort to posting in Friend Feed, or Posterous and let it post to Facebook.
