Section 1 MISSION STATEMENT. The Purpose of Facebook: Facebook is a social networking website that lets you connect with friends, coworkers, and others who share the same interests and/or have common backgrounds. Many use Facebook in order to stay in touch after finishing school, or as a way to share information about their life. What makes Facebook stand out from other social networks are its privacy controls, its development platform, and the massive volume of existing users. Facebook has been informally dubbed as the "thinking person's social network.� It gets new features and improvements on a regular basis, which is uncommon amongst other social networking sites. Like other social networks, Facebook is all about getting in touch with others; which is easily done with these constant updates. Luckily for you (the new user), Facebook has created simple ways to find your friends starting with your very own e-mail address.

Meet Joe: This is Joe Johnson. Joe is a 22 year old college student from Houston, Texas. Like you, he is new to the world of Facebook, but would like to finally get his account up and running. Throughout this guide, you will see Joe create and navigate his new Facebook account. However, before Joe even begins his task, he first must establish himself an online email address. Luckily, Joe is already set up with his Hotmail account. His email address is JoeJoh55@hotmail.com. f. 0A

Section 2 GETTING STARTED. The Facebook Homepage: To get started creating your Facebook User Account you must first open the internet browser on your computer desktop and visit www.facebook.com. This will bring up the Facebook Homepage which looks like this:

f. 1A

Creating an Account:

Once you have reached this page, the next step is to SIGN UP. In the righthand side of the Homepage screen there is a group of empty fields underneath the “Sign Up” header. Here is where you will input your First Name (or nickname), your Last Name and your Email Address. You will also be required to create a New Password, specify your Gender and specify your Birthday. Once you have filled out all of this information click the green “Sign Up” button to continue.


5 Looks like Joe already filled out all of his information. Now he can move forward and start building his Facebook profile. His password is: catlover2011. Joe is a big fan of cats, and this password will be something he will easily remember. Your password is what keeps your Facebook account safe. Try and make a password that is unique yet easy to remember. However, if you do end up forgetting your password you may have a temporary replacement password sent to your email.

f. 2A Once your have clicked “Sign Up� you will be asked to confirm your email address. Facebook will automatically generate an activation email to the email address you listed in the sign up window. Now, you must go to your email and click the link copied in the email to activate your Facebook account!


6 Using your Facebook: Now that you have your account activated you will be able to start building your Profile. If you already have friends that are on Facebook, you can look them up by their emails here to give your Friends List a big boost before you even start.

f. 3A The next step would be to fill out some of your profile information like what high school your graduated from, what college you’re a student at, and where you work. This information will be displayed on your Profile along with many other bits of info. Although, if you prefer to keep any information unknown you can always leave the fields blank and skip the step. When you’re finished click “Save & Continue.”

f. 3B Now, it is time to add a profile picture of yourself. Make sure to have a picture handy on your desktop. It can be in either JPEG or PNG format. This picture will be displayed on the top of your profile at all times. However, it is not permanent. Your profile picture can be changed as many times as you want it to be.


7

f. 3C At this point you can either take a photo of yourself with a installed webcam or UPLOAD a file photo from your computer. Let go grab Joe’s picture from his desktop. Click “Upload a Photo” to open the Desktop Menu.

f. 3D A ha! There it is! Now just click open and that’s it! You’ve now uploaded your first picture to your new account. Now click “Save & Continue” again.

f. 3E


8

f. 3F Check out Joe’s new Homepage! You can see his profile picture up in the top left corner. This is only a thumbnail version. A large picture will be shown on the main page of his Profile. From this page you can access many different applications such as your “News Feed,” your Messages, Events, Groups, your Friends List, Games and Photos. Facebook will also even offer you friend suggestions of “People You May Know.” All of these features can be found in the menu along the left side of the screen underneath your profile picture thumbnail.

Your Account Homepage:

Take a look at the top of your Homepage screen. Along the top of the screen is the navigation bar. There you see the “Facebook Logo” as well as three small icons, a search bar and tabs listed “Home,” “Profile,” and “Account.” These are all the basic functions of your Facebook profile.

By clicking the “Facebook Logo” or “Home” you will be brought back to your Account Homepage (f. 3F). But the other tabs and icons have different functions that will help navigate the different areas of the site.

f. 4A


9

f. 4B Take a look at the menu directly below your profile picture thumbnail. Here are the different pages that can be viewed from your Account Homepage screen.

This menu gives you access to all of the different features of Facebook that keep you up to date with the activity occurring on the site. Basically, this is where you get all of the incoming information shared by your friends and connections. It also gives you access to many other fun accessories like Games, Apps, Surveys and Photos.

f. 4C


10 THE NEWS FEED. The News Feed is the main section of your homepage and provides updates on the activity of your friends. This could be anything from wall posts to status updates to uploaded pictures. To the left of the feed are links that will re-load your homepage with information relevant to your Pages, the Status Updates of friends, Photos of friends, and Links that friends have posted. There is also an option for “More” which will enable you to view additional material like Videos and Notes.

NOTIFICATIONS. Notifications are notices that Facebook gives you whenever activity occurs that directly involves you and your account. It will also inform you of activity that occurs in locations where you have commented or participated in any way. You can view all of your notifications by clicking on the small earth icon

on the top navigation bar next to the Facebook logo.

MESSAGES. The Messages tab will open up your inbox which will store any and all messages sent and received by your account. Once you open the inbox you can organize and edit it by rearranging, composing or deleting messages as you see fit. You can also view your inbox by clicking on the small word bubble icon

on the top navigation bar next to the Facebook logo. (See more

about Messages on page 25)

EVENTS. The Events tab notifies you of your friends’ birthdays or of any Event that is upcoming and/or you have agreed to attend. Many times the event coordinator’s name or the title of the event will be a hyperlink so you can click on it to view the coordinator’s profile page or the detailed Event page. (See more about Events on page 32)

FRIENDS. The Friends tab lets you view a current list of all of your friends. You can edit this list by removing and blocking friends. You can also access this page by clicking the “Account” tab on the top navigation bar and clicking “Edit Friends” on the drop down menu, or by clicking the small man icon

next to the Facebook logo. (See more about Friends on page 21)

GROUPS. Groups are pages that are meant to be shared by people with similar interests and can be used to express yourself and your passions. (See more about Events on page 29)

OTHER FEATURES. Other features of Facebook can be accessed via the Homepage. These include fun games and applications that can be shared on your profile, surveys for your friends, photo albums, websites, Notes, links and much more.

Your Facebook Profile:

The next step is to create your Facebook Profile. By clicking the “Profile” tab on the top navigation bar you will access your Profile page. Let’s take a look at Joe’s Profile and see what it looks like.

f. 5A Here is where all of Joe’s activity will be displayed. You’ll be able to see his full-size profile picture, his name, a little information about him, a few friends of his, and any status updates, posted pictures or commentary that has been given or received by Joe. Your profile is divided into four major sections: 1. Your Wall 2. Your Profile Picture 3. Your Name, Status and Info 4. Your Friends

12 STATUS UPDATES. A Facebook status is a short note that you put on your Profile Wall letting your friends know what you are doing, what you are thinking about, what funny joke you just heard or just to post whatever you feel like saying. It’s an easy way to keep track of the everyday lives of your friends and makes for interesting conversation. Like most other Facebook activities, these status can be commented on and specific people can be tagged (marked) in a status so they will receive a notification about it.

f. 5C This is the status bar that is located in the top-center of your Profile. From here you can list standard information like your name, workplace, school, birthday, hometown and spoken languages. You can also post an assortment of things to your Wall. Here we see Joe has typed out his first Status Update! However, you can also share photos, links, videos and even surveys from this menu. Just click the format, type/ upload your content, then click share to post the new information to your Profile for your friends to see!

** The updates you post here will be directly forwarded to the Facebook News Feed and added to your Profile. This will allow all of your current friends and anyone else who is not blocked from viewing your Profile by your Security Settings to view this information. Please post wisely. **


13 YOUR PROFILE INFORMATION. Facebook is all about connecting with people. People like to share information about themselves. From your profile you can access your Information page and edit it as much or as little as you want. Facebook does not require its users to include all of their information on their profile. It only asks that you provide and name, email address, gender and a birthday. However, if you wish, you may hide your gender and birthday as well. You can access your Facebook Information Page through your Profile page from these two locations:

f. 5D By clicking the “Info” tab underneath your profile picture you will be forwarded to your current Information page that will display what all of your friends are seeing when they look you up. From there you can click the “Edit Profile” button to change, remove or organize your information, or you can just click the same button located in the upper right corner of your Profile page to bypass the viewing page and go directly to the edit screen.


14

f. 5E Here we see that Joe has gone and input some of his information. He listed his current location and his hometown, his sexual orientation, his known spoken languages and gave a little description about himself. Nicely done! On top of the information shown here, you can use the side menu in the upper left corner to change your profile picture (or take a new one), select your family members, share your educational goals and accomplishments, share your personal philosophies, and even share your favorite books, movies, sports, and other activities. You can even set up your mobile device to have access to Facebook and post your number for easy access by your friends.When you are finished filling out all of the desired information click the “Save Changes� button to save all the edited info to your viewable Information page.

** Any information you post here will be directly forwarded to the Facebook News Feed and added to your Profile. It will also save the information to your Information page. This will allow all of your current friends and anyone else who is not blocked from viewing your Profile by your Security Settings to view this information. Please post wisely. **


15 UPLOADING PHOTOS. One of the unique qualities of Facebook is its easily navigated photo sharing system. Every user’s Profile has the capability to upload as many photos as they want and create albums to organize them with. Posting pictures on your Profile helps you keep in even better touch with your friends and family and gives them a visual aid in doing so. Have a special events? Take photos of it and post them on Facebook in an album named after the event. For each specific photo you can write a caption that explains what it is, and you can tag (or mark) the people included in the photo that have Facebook accounts. Tagging people will send a notification to their Profile assuring that they see the new photo of themselves and allowing them to be one of the first ones to see it. You can access the Upload Photos page through your Profile page from these two locations:

f. 5F By clicking the “Photos” tab underneath your profile picture you will be forwarded to your current Photos page that will display what all of your friends are seeing when they look at your photo albums. Click on an album to see all of the pictures inside. From there you can click the “Upload a Photo” button to upload a file photo from your computer desktop.


16

These two little guys are Copper and Pepper. They are Joe’s cats and he wants to upload a picture of them so he will be able to share this photo with all of his Facebook friends. He just needs to make sure he has it saved to the desktop.

f. 5G

f. 5H Found it! Just click open and the photo will begin to download onto your Profile. You can use the COMMAND key to select multiple photos to upload at once.


17

f. 5I Once you’ve found your photo it will upload and then you will be prompted to create a new album for the photo to be placed, or select and existing album. You may also specify where the photo was taken, the desired resolution* (quality) of the photo and who can and cannot view the specific photo(s). When you are finished click the “Create Album/Save & Continue” button. *NOTE: Selecting the photo resolution to be “High Quality” will require a 10-times longer uploading process.

** Any photos you post here will be directly forwarded to the Facebook News Feed and added to your Profile. They will also appear on your Photo Albums page. This will allow all of your current friends and anyone else who is not blocked from viewing your Profile by your Security Settings to view this information. Facebook also has monitors to ensure that no inappropriate photos are posted. Nudity, violence and overall offensive photos are strictly prohibited and can result in a temporary account ban and/or account deactivation if deemed necessary. Please post wisely. **


18

f. 5J Once you have completed the album assignment phase you can now write a short description of the photo(s), tag (mark) any of your Facebook friends who are included in the photo(s), and set the album cover. When all the information is set to your liking click the “Publish” button to post the photo(s) to your album, your Wall and the News Feed. You also have the option to “Skip” this step all together and return later.

f. 5K Look! Now Joe has a new photo album devoted to his two furry friends!


19 YOUR WALL. Your Wall is the news center for all of your Facebook activity. It helps you keep track of what all you’ve done and what you have seen. It provides and easy way to archive all of the cool and memorable things you’ve encountered on Facebook. It also is a medium for you to share with your friends. You post status’ here, you share photos, you post links to other websites that can contain videos and articles. It is effectively your own Facebook information super highway!

Joe has been doing quite a bit with his new profile by now! So far he has: · Created an account. · Uploaded a Profile Picture. · Made a Status Update. · Posted some Profile Information. · and Uploaded a Photo to his Albums.

That’s a lot of editing! How on earth is he supposed to keep track of it all!? Luckily for Joe (and for you) there is a very simple solution. Facebook monitors your activity on the sire and documents it on your “Wall” which is the main page of your Facebook Profile. From there we should be able to see all of the activity that has occurred since step one and it will keep documenting activity as long as your Facebook account remains activated. Although, if you don’t wish for a specific activity to been documented on your Wall then you can always scroll through your Wall information and manually delete the documentation. Check out other people’s Walls to see what they’ve been up to!

Let’s take a look at Joe’s Wall and see what it looks like after all of his editing...


20

f. 5L

Look at all of that stuff! There you can see documentation of everything Joe has just done with his Profile! What an easy way to keep track of things! Your friends can also directly communicate with you by posting on your Wall, so don’t be surprised when a post shows up on your wall and it’s not from you. If they would rather their communication be private, they can always send it in a Message (see page 25).

*NOTE: You can always get back to this page from any other page by clicking the “Wall” tab underneath your profile picture or by clicking the “Profile” tab on the top navigation bar.


21

Your Friends:

The friends you make on Facebook will definitely liven up your experience. You’ll be able to find new friends and maintain relationships with old ones. Participate together in all of the applications Facebook has to offer. Comment on a friend’s photo or status. Post a message on your friends Wall. Share a link in a Message. Facebook is all about interaction, and it makes it very simple!

f. 6A FINDING FRIENDS. Check out the menu on the bottom right of your Account Homepage titled “People You May Know.” Here you’ll find other Facebook User Profiles that have similar connections as you do. Whether they have mutual friends, similar interests or similar information, Facebook will filter out any and all individuals it suspects you may know.

REQUESTING FRIENDS. Looks likes Joe recognizes some of these people! He went to high school with Angie, but never really talked to her, so he’ll pass on adding her. He works with Lisa, maybe he’ll add her later. For now he’s just going to add his roommate, Chad. All he has to do is click “Add Friend” underneath Chad’s name and then wait for Chad to confirm the Friend Request.

f. 6B


22

f. 6C Once you click “Add Friend” you will be prompted to send a Friend Request. This will notify your soon-to-be friend that you wish to be their friend. They will then have the option of either accepting or denying your request. Click the “Send Request” button to notify Chad of your desired Facebook friendship. When Chad responds to Joe’s requests and accepts it, he will receive a notification that he has done so and the information will be posted on both Joe’s and Chad’s Wall and the Facebook News Feed. A photo and link to Chad’s profile will now appear in Joe’s “Friends List” page and vice-versa on Chad’s “Friend’s List” page. It will also be seen in the lower left hand corner of your Profile underneath “Friends.”

Looks like Joe is now friends with Chad and Chad even wrote on Joe’s Wall!!

f. 6D


23 ACCEPTING FRIEND REQUESTS. When another user requests to be your friend you have the option of either accepting their request, denying their request and preventing them from requesting a friendship with you again, or just saying “Not Now” and saving the request for a later decision.

f. 6E On the left of the top navigation bar you’ll find the Facebook logo and three small icons. As stated before, these icons represent different things: This one represents Friend Requests.

This one represents Unread Messages.

And this one represents Notifications.

When a user receives a Friend Request he/she is notified with a small red bubble that appears next to the Friend Request icon.

f. 6F Looks like Joe has his first Friend Request! Let’s see who it is... By clicking on the man icon a drop down window will open revealing who sent the request.

f. 6G


24 OH! It looks like it’s Joe’s friend, Lisa, from work who was mentioned earlier. She beat Joe to the punch with a friend request of her own. Now Joe can either confirm or deny her request. Of course he will accept. Just click the “Confirm” button to grant Lisa access to your profile and become her friend. Once the request is confirmed the new friend will be added to the Friends List, there will be evidence of the new friendship on your Wall and the News Feed.

f. 6H Here’s all of the friends that Joe has acquired. The “Friends List” page can be accessed by clicking the “Friends” tab underneath your profile picture on the main page of your Profile or by clicking “See All Friends” after confirming a request.

REMOVING FRIENDS. It’s actually quite simple to remove a friend from your Friends List. Just navigate to your “Friends List” page and click the small “x” directly to the right of the friend’s picture and name. If you are removing this friend(s) for personal reasons and do not wish to have any further contact with them then you have the option to permanently block the user from interacting with your profile. If the user’s behavior warranted removal due to offensive or inappropriate behavior then you have the option of contacting Facebook Support and filing a complaint. If needed, further disciplinary actions will take place accordingly.


25 Your Inbox: Not all of Facebook has to be viewed by everyone. If you have a need to communicate with another user privately you can always send them a Message using the instant messaging system. Messages will be stored in your inbox just like on your Wall but its viewing privileges are exclusive to you.

SENDING A MESSAGE. Messages allow you to send specific commentary to specific individual users privately. None of the information you post in a Message will be viewable to anyone other than the recipient.

f. 7A Click the word bubble icon on the top navigation bar to open a drop down window that displays your Messages. To compose a New Message just click “Send a New Message� to open up another window.

Looks like Joe is sending Lisa a message about work tomorrow.

f. 7B


26 When sending a Message you can include as much content text as you want as well as photos, videos and links if you wish to share more information. To view a list of all of the Messages you’ve written just click “See All Messages” in the drop down window from before.

f. 7C

Security Settings:

Facebook’s Security Systems is divided into two main departments: Account Settings and Privacy Settings. The Account Settings feature allows you to change any of your account information like the email address used or the login information like your password. It also lets you manage your networks, notifications and the layout of your Profile. The Privacy Settings help the user determine who can view their Profile and how much of it will be displayed. You decide whether you want your Profile to be seen by everyone or only by your friends. To access both pages, just click the “Account” tab on the top navigation bar.

Section 3 ADVANCED FEATURES. Facebook Pages: A public figure, business, or brand can create a Facebook Page to directly interact and share information with their fans, and create an engaging presence on Facebook. Pages are distinct profiles that are optimized to represent a business, and are completely separate from other user Profiles. They can be enhanced with applications that help the organization communicate with their fans, and gain new audiences through their fans' recommendations to their friends. BECOMING A FAN OF A FACEBOOK PAGE. There are many Facebook pages that exist on the site. A good way to keep track of the activity of a specific page is to become a “fan” of that page. This will notify you every time there is a new update or new activity linked to the page(s) you’re a fan of. And it’s as easy as clicking a button!

Joe wants to become a fan of his college’s Facebook Page. So he just searches for “The University of Texas at Austin” in the search bar and finds the college Page.

f. 9A


29

f. 9B At the top of the Page next to the title there is a small button with a thumbs-up symbol that says the word “Like.” Click this button to become a fan of the Facebook Page you are on and you will from then on be following that Page’s activity.

Facebook Groups: Groups are a place for people with a common interest to come together and post links, videos, pictures, ideas, and questions about said interests. The tools available on a Group page are limited, so you cannot add boxes, Notes, or other applications. Pages have more options available, but are more typically used for businesses or public identities.

JOINING A FACEBOOK GROUP. Joining a Group is as easy as joining a Page. Just look up the desired Group by using the search bar located on the top navigation bar and find the Group page. From there you will be able to join the Group. However, unlike Pages, you must submit a request to the Group Administrator to join. They have the option to accept or deny your request.

Joe wants to join a group about his favorite animal...wonder what that could be...?


30

f. 10A

f. 10B Looks like it’s a Group all about cats...go figure. Now all he needs to do is click the “Join” button at the top of the page next to the title and a request will be sent to Lolly, the Group Administrator. Hopefully, Joe will get accepted into the Group!


31 CREATING YOUR OWN FACEBOOK GROUP. We all have interests and passions. Why not put yours out there to be seen? Create your own Group and share your thoughts with your friends. Whether it be a serious debate or just a fun, entertaining page, Groups always add interest to any Profile.

To begin creating your own Group you must navigate to the Account Homepage. Once there you need to refer to the menu to the left underneath the thumbnail of your profile picture. In the middle of the list there is a tab titled “Create a Group.� Click it to begin creating your own Group.

f. 10C Once you click this button your will be prompted to name your Group, select members to join and set its privacy level.

f. 10D


32 Joe made a Group devoted to Copper and Pepper, his two cats, and it looks like he invited Chad and Lisa to join the Group as members. He also set his privacy settings to “Open,” which will allow anyone who is interested to send a membership request to Joe (the Group Administrator). Once the information is all filled out click the “Create” button to finalize your Group. Your new Group page now exists. Don’t forget to upload a Group profile picture and input some info just like we did for your Profile. People are going to want to know about the Group they are joining.

f. 10E

Facebook Events:

Events are scheduled pages that are created to inform your Facebook friends of upcoming plans. They can be used to RSVP as well. Guests mark whether they are “attending,” “maybe attending” or “not attending.” You can also freely message every person involved with the said Event simultaneously. So the Events feature can also be a very handy tool for the avid party planner and scheduled individual.


33 CREATING A FACEBOOK EVENT. The Event creation process allows an event coordinator to relay a lot of detailed information about upcoming plans to many people at the same time. It will give them start time and end time, a location, and a description of the Event itself. It can even specify who should see the Event page and who should not. Events are easily one of the handiest features on Facebook.

To start creating an Event you need to be at the Account Homepage again. Look at the left-hand side menu, underneath your profile thumbnail and click the tab that’s titled “Events.”

f. 11A Clicking that tab will take you to the “Events Page” that will display all of your current planned Events as well as the Events of friends that you were invited to. Now click the “Create an Event” button in the top right corner to open a new window.

f. 11B


34 In this new window be sure to input all pertinent information about the Event you are planning. Make sure to establish a start and end time, give a location as well as invite guests to attend. You can also post a picture, write a description and determine who can and can’t see the Event page. Joe here is planning a surprise party for Chad on the 2nd of February. Looks like it starts at 5:30pm and goes until 11:30 that night, and it’ll take place in their dorm room! Now that sounds like a lot of fun!

f. 11C Once all the information is filled in click the “Create Event” button to complete the Event. Here’s what Joe’s Event page looks like when it’s all finished. Now it’s just a matter of waiting to see who all RSVPs...

f. 11D


35 So there you have it; the basic Beginner’s Guide to Facebook. Now you can create your own account, make your own friends and interact with their Profiles. Plan your own Events and share your ideas and passions all on this one website! A whole new world of online social networking is now at your fingertips! Maybe you’ll become as big of a fan of Facebook as Joe is.
