PHOTO DELETED: YOU WISH!

So you thought your wild drunken photos deleted from the net are no longer existing huh? FALSE!

Try uploading a photo in Facebook, take note of the URL of the image.. then delete it. After a month or so, try to check the Photo URL.. you might be surprised that the actual photo is still hanging around.

According to a research at Cambridge University, it takes a while for a social networking site to delete photos from their system. Like FB, photos uploaded and deleted from their system takes months to disappear. This is because, the photo vanishes only if the url is overwritten.

LESSON?

Never upload something that you don't want the whole wide world to see!
