Yes, it’s possible to enjoy all the features of Facebook without a meltdown. I have used the “help” menu and watched videos online but most of my knowledge was acquired quickly by experimenting with all the titles, headings, and expanded directions attached.
Your profile is you. You have complete control over just how detailed your personal information is when posted. You can select a picture of yourself or you can use a graphic.
You will appreciate the wide variety of Causes that you can support. Its a simple process to post a worthy Cause to your page. Share your reasons about why you support the cause and share it with your friends. This is a terrific way to add people and raise funds. You might want to create a local Cause and use it to educate and inform others.
You can post your family vacation, wedding pictures, or baby albums to your page. Absent relatives will love the updated photos of the kids, your new home, or the car you just parked in the driveway. You can tag people in your pictures or even allow others to tag people in your photos. Afterwards, when you move your mouse across the picture the name of the person tagged will be displayed.
It’s simple to post videos to your site. Post links to videos and internet articles to share with everyone. I have videos posted that show my son issuing Halloween greetings, carving his pumpkins, and showing off his costume. I have also posted videos from news sites about current issues to the top of my page.
Rather than just play games, you can own a restaurant, live in the country, build a theme park or live in a different time. What’s really cool is that you will nearly always need “neighbors” and you get them by inviting your friends. Within these game programs you can dance, kiss, fight, and lots of other neat stuff that may keep you up later than a good movie.
Commenting is a way to instantly voice your opinion or make a joke. Chide a friend, make a new connection, or create a relationship is part of the experience. The comment feature is augmented with live chat and private messaging. Live chat allows you to carry on several little talks with multiple friends while you are still on the page taking other actions. Private messages are easy to send and no one else can read them except you and your buddy.
Today my Mom sent me a hug and that went with the smiles, hearts, and Christmas cheer I received. I got to decide if I wanted to also click on a button to publish those wonderful electronic endearments to my page. Fasten your seat belt because you about to have a lot of fun without spending a dime or using the gas in your car. Good luck with getting any sleep now.
