Now THAT’s security, if you can’t even find your own group!

Here’s how you get there.

In Facebook, click your Groups link in the left nav (right under the search box), and likely it will show up under “Your Recently Updated Groups” on the right side of the page. If that doesn’t work, click the “My Groups” link at the top left of that page, and you’ll see a list of all your groups.

Let me know how it works.

Well this is funny because I was dutifully doing one of your assignments and set up a secret Facebook account for my business and then couldn’t (can’t!) get back to it. I still ahven’t figured out how to find it. I had sent links to my colleagues and I tried using them and no deal. ONe of my colleagues tried to respond and she can’t log-in. So – while I’m offering $100 – would love someone to hack in for me

So, does anyone know how to find your own and why if you start one there’s no access from your Facebook account?

Sorry if I wasn’t clear. The challenge is for one hundred dollars ($100). If no one can do it or is willing to do it for $100, I may take contributions for others in hopes of raising the ante. But $100 (or $200 including the upload of a photo) is the limit of my personal resources.

So, the first one who accomplishes the hack gets the money. If it’s not worth it for you to do it for $100, maybe the prize will go up if I ask others to contribute.

But then again, maybe someone else will think the $100 is enough. So watch this space, and if the prize offering ever seems like it’s worth your while, have at it.
