a presentation about using Facebook for my FIT1012 class.

1. By Cassy Boyington

2. What is Facebook?
Facebook is a social networking site that allows you to
connect with other people around the world and do a
plethora of things including:
 Chat
 Share Pictures
 Like a certain status, group or person.
 Play online flash games.

3. The Front Page
The front page is where
you login or signup.
As you can tell, Facebook
covers the globe and has
access to most of the
languages spoken to
insure that people can
effectively communicate
with others.
The World is now
Connected on a
more personal
level

4. Your Home Page
The home page is the portal to everything and it
has your friend’s recent posts in the middle.
Your applications are to the left (your list of
friends, events,messages and the news feed on
top and all your game applications on the
bottom).
Recently added was the list of friends that are
online and ready to chat to the bottom left of
your profile page.
On the right side is the events that are taking
place soon, the people you may know and
want to get a friend request, sponsored links,
requests from friends that play games like
Farmville or Happy Pets. The last thing is the
get connected portion of the home page. It
just lists ways to get more friends on, and how
many people who you have referred and the
people that may have referred you.
When you log in
that is what you see
everyday, all with
new content from
many factors

5. Pictures
Pictures are everywhere. On Facebook you
can share pictures, tag people in the
picture (that way it will link it to them
and post it to their profile as well as have
that picture on their photo page)
On the top you will have your tagged
pictures from other people.
On the bottom is your Albums of all your
pictures on Facebook.
To create an album just click the link on the
top that says “Create a Photo Album”.
Albums make it easier to group certain
pictures together.
Your
Albums
Your Tagged
Photos

6. Friends
Friends on Facebook are most likely
friends you know in real life or share
a similar interest.
Facebook is NOT like Myspace where it
is a competition to get more friends.
On your friends page, you can find
your friends in Alphabetical order
(from first name)
You can delete friends from the list by
clicking on the little x to the far
right of their picture and name. Your list of
Friends

7. Games
There are hundreds of
games on Facebook.
Ones about Pets, War,
Farming, Design,
Fashion, building,
puzzles and so many
others are popular and so
many millions of people
use the applications
every month.
Happy Pets is one
of the most used
Game applications

8. Open and Free your mind
On your profile (wall) you have the ability to write your
thoughts and feelings.
You can also comment and write on your friend’s profiles
just by clicking on their name and going to their
profile and simply write. They will see what you have
written on and it will be more like a private message
between you two. All you have to do is
post whatever and click
the link that says share
and it will
automatically let your
friends know when
they go on either their
home page or your
profile

9. How to Sign Up
First you must enter your real First name.
Then you have to enter your Last name.
Put in your Real Email Address
(bob123@gmail.com for example) and
then re-enter it
Then enter a password you won’t forget
Then enter your Gender and your Real
Birthday (have to be 13 and up) and then
you are signed up!!!
You won’t have to worry about
paying for it!!!

10. Have Fun!
Facebook is very fun, but just a reminder:
 Take breaks, hygiene is very important!
 Don’t be a cyberbully!
 Do not accept random friend requests from people you
do not know.
