How do you manage your online identity?

When I go on Facebook, I manage to keep my personal online identity private at all times. I don’t really post any personal comments and photos on Facebook. There only time when I post a comment when only topics involves with everyone socially for instance; My footy team has beaten a really efficient and difficult team, this is the comment that I posted this past Sunday ‘Go Carlton, we beat Richmond, what a win’ a quote from Jorge. When I go on Facebook, I rarely chat to my friends online as I prefer to communicate with them in person or on mobile phone.
