If you take a minute to set up your Groups you can easily decide who sees which posts. I decided to distinguish between "Family" and "Cool Family", as there's certain subjects that my siblings should see but my mom shouldn't.

However, I really don't post there much except for "look at my bebe" so it's not a huge issue. I enjoy it first as a lurker, second as a way to swap links, and third for activist uses.
