Facebook to let users carry profile with them to other websites

Sympatico Tech News is reporting that Facebook will begin to allow its users to take their profiles with them, so they can be used on other websites.

Users will be able to automatically copy pictures, personal information and other customized applications established on Facebook to other websites without extra effort once the changes announced Friday take effect.

The privacy settings attached to a person's Facebook profile will remain in effect at external websites.

Palo Alto-based Facebook unveiled its intention to extend its reach into other websites the day after its larger rival, MySpace, laid out a similar plan.

Both social networks say it will be several more weeks before their users' data becomes portable.
