Follow this link to a piece on Mashable about recent changes to Facebook‘s terms of service…  It seems the social networking site now claims a perpetual license to any content (photos, videos, etc.) you choose to post on your facebook page.  Even if you later cancel your Facebook account.

Hat tip to Erin Jacobson for bringing this to my attention.
