4. Facebook is an online social networking service. It was
founded in February 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg with his
college roommates and fellow Harvard University
students.
The website's membership was initially limited by the
founders to Harvard students, but was expanded to other
colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League, and Stanford
University. It gradually added support for students at
various other universities before opening to high school
students, and eventually to anyone aged 13 and over.
Facebook now allows any users who declare themselves to
be at least 13 years old to become registered users of the
site.
As of January 2014, Facebook has over one billion active
users
5. Start when? Now – those who wait till they
understand all social media will forever be
behind the times
Facebook is not only for personal relationship
upkeep but also for businesses to stay
connected with their customers
It is a perfect beginner platform for those
wanting to share & stay connected either with a
chosen few or with the masses!

22. Do: Create an on-line presence. This can help show case your talents
and skills as well as allow you to easily connect with people.
Do: Pay attention to comment & posting etiquettes. Do you really
want to see a toilet in the background of a pucker lipped person? Old
rule applies no matter the situation - think twice post once.
Do: Post testimonials. Businesses are working hard to provide what
their customers want – if you see a great page let them know.
Do: Help promote others.. Networking works both ways – the more
you are willing to help someone else the more they will likely reach
out to help you in return.
Do post compelling messages – post great pictures – share your
timeline with great content.
Do post regular messages of interest for your family and friends.
Do respond to questions, concerns, and compliments on your social
media page.
Do post regularly about news, trips, and fun posts about your staff.
23. Don’t: Connect with everyone. Quality is more important than quantity.
When making a connection with someone other than family or friends –
research and ask yourself why?
Don’t: Post things you would not want to get out – personal information
best left for an in person conversation
Don’t spam… If you have a business do not post your merchandise
directly on others personal or professional timelines. (unless authorized &
then only in moderation with returned kindness)
Don’t post too much. Don’t overload your followers to the point they
ignore you. Remember quality over quantity
Don’t just post for the “heck of it.” this is not Twitter telling us what you
had for breakfast, lunch and dinner daily is not what people are following
you to read
Don’t: Link a personal FB page with business if you are going to post the
morning after pictures – or risky pictures that will cause concern for
family, friends or bosses
Don’t: Loose a good friend or risk getting blocked or unfriended. If your
having an off day call 1-800-BFF

33. LINK POST PICTURE POST
A Link post you are
connecting to
another page on the
web, an event, social
media etc..
You can also use the
status area to ‘Tag’
another person or
place. Depending on
if you are using FB
as a person or page.
A picture post is highly
valued by FB. Especially a
clean picture post versus a
shared picture.
Tag the status or the picture
(Two options)
35. PICTURES PERMISSIONS
A tag is a special kind of link.
When you tag someone, you
create a link to their timeline.
The post you tag the person in
may also be added to that
person’s timeline. For example,
you can tag a photo to show
who’s in the photo or post a
status update and say who
you’re with. If you tag a friend
in your status update, anyone
who sees that update can click
on your friend’s name and go
to their timeline. Your status
update may also show up on
that friend’s timeline.
You can remove a tag
You can tag up to 50
people or pages on a
photo
You can review tags
before allowing them on
your timeline

General layout – ask what they would like to get out of the course
Recommend skipping – this is not what FB would recommend but we believe it is better to organically grow your connections based on the reasons why you are using FB. Plus, it allows you to sort & categorize your connections one at a time. (Keeps you from getting SM overload…)
General settings: name, user name, email, password, networks, language and temperature.
“Networks’ is a setting you will see if you are using FB connected to a school or workplace – financial. Advisors & other regulated industries will also see this setting
Security settings: this is where you control your login notifications, approvals, extra levels of protection for your account, add trusted contacts, watch browsers & see where you are currently logged in at.
Privacy – We’ve set up most of these using the privacy checkup setting
Briefly go over blocking and mention the FB games:
When you add friends to your Restricted list they can only see the information and posts that you make public. Facebook does not notify your friends when you add them to your Restricted list.
Knowing when, where & why you are being tagged is also a way to protect your information.
Go over liking w/following & liking w/out following
Understanding not to let it ruin your life – use it for the value it holds but YOU control it
Not the other way around. List areas that help you control your time, techniques for posting & emotional pitfalls
Cover photos are 851 pixels wide and 315 pixels tall. If you upload an image that's smaller than these dimensions, it will be stretched to this larger size. The image you upload must be at least 399 pixels wide and 150 pixels tall.
To get the fastest load times for your Page, upload an RGB JPG file that's 851 pixels wide, 315 pixels tall and less than 100 kilobytes. For images with your logo or text, you may get a higher quality result by using a PNG file.
A group admin or the person who uploaded the file can delete it by clicking the down arrow next to the post and selecting Delete Post. Note: if someone has the permalink to your Dropbox file, they may still be able to access it. To add your Dropbox file to a group, you first have to add the app. Like other apps on Facebook, Dropbox needs certain information to work. Any member of a school group can upload or download files. If you upload a revised version of a file, the previous version of the file will still be available.
