Thanks for your interest! I hope these videos serve to help you really start to be productive and have fun in your Facebook environment. Make sure to bookmark this page! But please, do not send this page to anyone else, this page is for members’ eyes only.
Facebook is a “Social Network”, sort of like MySpace. One of Facebook’s defining differences from MySpace, however, is that it has a much higher population of College or Post-Grad members which means that, in general, the atmosphere is much more professional and mature. So, if you are looking for a way to connect with your friends, or find new ones, without stooping to the level of disco balls, piercings, and high school lingo… Facebook is your network.
Note: If you are a single person and find the ads on Facebook distastful, change your relationship status to either “In a Relationship” or leave that element blank. That should greatly reduce the presence of any dating ads.
