Getting started on Facebook is easy. Facebook, like other social networks, is all about getting in touch with others. Once you have registered your account, you can start by filling out your own profile. You can also choose to upload your personal photo. You are not required to include anything about yourself, so don't feel too inclined to fill out information you don't want others to see; which brings us to the topic of privacy. I will explain more on privacy in my next post.
Next, you can start to add your friends to your Facebook. You can find your friends on Facebook by using their search feature or their built-in friend finder.
To get started adding friends to Facebook (many of who may already be on the system), use your most active Web mail account (Hotmail, as one example), and your AIM buddy list, which in some cases could pull up nearly everyone you know. Since everyone needs an e-mail address to sign up with Facebook, giving Facebook permission to use your existing address books should make it possible to track down everyone with whom you communicate.
If your friend is not on Facebook yet, you can also send their an invitation from Facebook to invite them to join you. You can also choose to join any networks that you think might be interesting to you.
While adding your friends, you can also choose to add details on how you get to know your friend and once your friends had receive the request and confirm that the details are correct, you will be able to see your friend under “Friends” in your profile.
