2. 1. Create Interest Based Lists
Take advantage of Facebook's "Lists" functionality.
Similar to Twitter lists.
Create lists based on interests, then tune in for a targeted catch-up on certain
topics.
To create your first list:
Go to your homepage menu.
Click "More" next to the "Interests" section
Click "Add Interests," then "Create List."
Lists can be of people, subscriptions or friends.
Once created, you can choose to make them private to you, or share them
with the world.

3. 2. Put Pictures into your Maps
You can make an interesting map that shows all the places you've been.
Retrospectively add locations to images already uploaded to Facebook.
How to do it:
Click on the "Photos" box under your cover photos.
Select "Add Photos to Map."
You will then be able to scroll through all your images and add the
relevant geo data.

4. 3.Create a Secret Group
What is it?
Create a "secret" Facebook group that only you, and the friends you
choose to share it with, can view.
Why do it?
It's a fun way to share members-only content with a select few.
How do you do it?
On your homepage click "More" next to the "Groups" area.
Select "Create Group" on the next page that loads.
Name your group.
Choose a fun icon from the drop-down menu, add friends and then check
the "secret" option.
You will now see your new group under the "Groups" area in your
homepage. Click on it to post to the group and view content from others.

5. 4. Upload Images in High Quality
Why bother with this tool?
Because Facebook's default photo upload functionality is not high
resolution.
To ensure your images are the best quality possible, always check the
"High Quality" box as you upload.
It will take a little longer, but the better images should be worth the wait.

6. 5. View Photos Full-Screen
Why is this worth doing?
It gives a better gallery viewing experience.
OK, run me through implementing this tip.
In an album, click on the first image, then hover over the photo. A
floating menu will appear along the bottom of the image.
Click on "Options" and you'll see the ability to "Enter Fullscreen." Now
you can browse with a clean, black background.
To return to normal mode, simply hit the Escape key or the "X" on the
top-right of your display.
