Mind you, you could use your real name and not put a photo up - nobody can see any of your details beyond your name if they're not on your list of friends. There are usually several people with the same name (several trillion if you're a Jones or Smith) so there would be no way to tell it was you.
It is a good way of staying in touch with people, I usually pay attention to the status updates because they sum up how people are doing in a sentence - slightly less long winded than LJ :o)
