My Permissions

I found a really great site today that helps check what applications have access to your social network accounts. I was surprised at the amount of applications that had full access to my Google and Facebook accounts. At MyPermissions.org I was able to quickly access all of the different permission pages that are usually buried very deep. No registration necessary, just start clicking the icons to view the associated permission page. Everything took about 2 minutes as the site claims. 

I’m always really cautious about letting applications have control over any of my accounts and thought this wasn’t an issue. I removed tons of applications only leaving 1 in some cases. Do yourself a favor and check this out!
