This is the second edition of the best-selling Facebook for Grown-Ups , updated for all the changes Facebook has made over the past year - and there have been a lot. Instead of focusing on youth-oriented activities, this book focuses on what baby boomers and seniors want to do on Facebook. Facebook for Grown Ups, 2/e offers clear explanations and simple step-by-step instructions from Michael Miller, a world-renowned expert on simplifying complex topics. New to the second edition of this book is coverage of Facebook's new photo uploading/sharing capabilities, new 'fan' pages, new groups functionality, and new (and constantly changing) privacy settings. Also new are chapters on Facebook's new unified message center; what you should - and shouldn't - post on Facebook; third-party Facebook tools; and other social networks of interest to grown-ups, including Twitter and LinkedIn. Updated coverage:
- Find old friends, family, and colleagues on Facebook.
- Share family photos and home videos.
- Decide what to share and what to keep private.
- Discover the Facebook applications and games that over-40 users are most likely to be interested in.
- Keep tabs on the kids on Facebook - without driving them crazy.
- Updating your friends on what you've been up to
Every topic is approached from the standpoint of adult users - not kids or grandkids
