NEW YORK (AP) - Facebook is giving its uses a bit more control over who gets to see what on their personal pages. The Web site is asking its users to review and update their privacy settings. Facebook has 350 million users and the new controls are designed to help them better keep tabs on what kinds of information can be accessed by those trolling through the site's pages to find out about their friends, family and co-workers. Despite the changes, privacy advocated still worry that users will be exposing too much about themselves, whether they want to or not. For example, many an employee has been chagrined to find that their boss has been able to check out the same party photos they planned to share with their buddies, only.
