Facebook made its new profile style mandatory for all users today.  Whether you like it or not, you and your teens will now have a row of most recently tagged photos along the top of your/their profile page.

If you haven't tweaked your privacy settings in a while, you probably want to make sure that you know who is allowed to "tag" you in photographs -- if you don't, a picture that you're not too fond of may appear at the top of your page.

Gawker published an article today that walks you through the process of "locking down" your photo privacy settings.  Check it out:
