Personal Facebook Pages

From the survey at the beginning of this class, I know that 90% of you already have a personal Facebook Page. For those of you that don't, here's a Create an Account Tutorial if you want to create a FB Account.

| | Facebook Manners and You

For those of you who already have a Facebook account, have you ever read any of the Facebook documentation? You might find there are some surprising rules about Facebook. Since this IS a social media course, it's worth visiting (and reading) the Facebook Get Started section to learn all the details you probably just skipped before. Here are some common tweaks that I find many people do not know about.

How to hide or unhide stories from a particular app (like Farmville) from appearing in my News Feed?

How do I control what I see in the News Feed?

How do I tag other people or pages in a post or comment?

How can you review the tags that people add to your posts before they appear?

The privacy settings around the Facebook News feed are very complex. If you're going to really understand how FB works, you need to go and read all the topics in News Feed Privacy.

There will be a quiz, so make sure you pay attention to the details!
