Getting Started with Facebook

About 90 million people now have a Facebook. No doubt it is one of the most popular internet based community on the web. People want Facebook for a variety of reasons, including talking to friends, family, and uploading pictures of themselves and their friends. Facebook also has the top-notch security features that only allow your friends to see your content(this feature is removable, of course). If you want to get started with your Facebook, there are a lot of things you should know before you begin.

First thing you need to do is go to www.facebook.com and hit "Sign Up". After the sign-up process you should start to find some friends. In the upper right hand corner of the page, click inside of the box with a "Search" next to it. From here you can do a variety of things. You can search by name, school, or even location. Just find some of your friends and then hit "add as friend". Once you have them added, you can look on their friend's list and find other people that you know.

One thing that most people do not know about Facebook is that there are applications that you can use that can be games or even a fun toy where you answer question about your friends. You can search for applications in the search box also. Once downloaded, you can find them on your wall, which leads me to my next topic.

The "wall" is a great tool that you can use. It is the main page that people see when they view your profile. You can customize your wall with photos, applications, and bumper stickers. You can write a "status message" which other people can see how you are feeling. You can use your wall to express who you are and what you like to do!

Bumper stickers are also something you should learn a thing or two about. They are like a button with a funny message or a picture. They can be sent to friends or be added to your wall for your own enjoyment. Most people find bumper stickers a fun part of Facebook. You can search for bumper stickers in the search box.

One last thing you need to know about to get started with Facebook is the profile. Fill out your profile with information about what you like, what you have done, and who you are. Well, this is pretty much everything you need to know about getting started with Facebook. Thank you for reading.
