FACEBOOK ADDS NEW SECURITY FEATURES

Facebook has implemented two new security features to make its website more secure regardless of where you access it from.  The first is a one-time use password.  If you are in a location or using a machine where you don't feel secure using your regular password, Facebook will text you a one-time use password.  The password is good for 20 minutes.  To request a one-time password text "opt" to 32665.  You will need to add your mobile number to your account and have it verified before requesting the password though.

The second new feature is remote logoff.  If you forget to log out of Facebook, you can log in on another device, go to Account Settings page and you will be able to see and kill any active sessions. [Geek]
