There are frequently articles about how to undo the latest new and disastrous changes Facebook seems to be enamored with foisting on users, but most of those are directed to limited disasters.

A recent article on how to manage the beast might be of interest over a somewhat longer term to some of those addicted .

The stupid things you do on Facebook -- and how to fix them.

Despite it's cute title, the article does give some tips on things you can (and probably should) do just to manage your FB page so that it's a help (or at least one of your pleasurable self-abuses) and not an obligatory curse. Unlike the disaster articles, that blast you with "this is tough and we're the only ones who can help you fix it," the suggestions appear to be pretty general and probably very simple to apply.

It appears to me (not an addict) that much of what's offered should be applicable for more than just the latest FB-generated crisis.

Suggested reading for those who might be interested.
