seems a ridiculous feature imo
FB is already too much of an invasion of privacy but this takes it to a whole new realm.

This annoys me, if you dont want your private life shared, dont share it, common sense tbh

Its only a last location thing, posting where you are etc

simples.

Something called Places, apparently you can 'Check In' and tell everyone on facebook where you are - about as useful as a chocolate teapot!

On your GPS enabled (I assume) mobile visit touch.facebook.com (Or use the iphone app) then you can update where you are posting from and tag people who are with you.

You can stop people tagging you at their location in privacy settings. If you don't want to use it don't, the people sitting their complaining make me laugh. Its fun if its something you want, if its not then it doesn't affect you.
