public later). When you’ve completed the form, click the Sign Up button. At this point, Facebook wants to walk you through some steps to get you started.
Completing step 1: Finding friends
In step 1, you find friends who are already on Facebook by using your e-mail account’s contacts list. Facebook offers options for Outlook (Hotmail), Gmail, Yahoo!, and other e-mail services. Click the Find Friends link next to the type of e-mail account you have, type your e-mail address in the text.
16 Signing Up box, and click the Find Friends button. A dialog box may appear, asking you to allow Facebook to access your e-mail account and contacts list. You need to grant this access for Facebook to cross-check the e-mail addresses in your contacts list with the addresses registered on Facebook.
You can find friends associated with multiple e-mail accounts. For instance, if you have three Gmail accounts, you can type any of those addresses to find friends who are already on Facebook. Or if you have a Gmail account and a Yahoo! account, find your Gmail friends and then repeat the process for your Yahoo! account.
After you allow Facebook to access your e-mail account, you’re presented with a list of friends who are currently on Facebook. Or, if you’re a Gmail user, you see instructions for uploading your contacts.
If you see a list of friends, select the check box next to each friend you’d like to connect with on Facebook. If you want to connect with all your contacts, select the Select All Friends check box. When you’ve selected your friends, click the Add Friends button to continue.
If Facebook finds e-mail addresses for people who are not on Facebook yet, you’re asked if you’d like to invite those people to connect on Facebook. If you choose to do that, Facebook sends a message to those people on your behalf, asking them to join Facebook. You can instead click Skip This Step if you don’t want to add contacts right now. Completing step 2: Filling in profile information In step 2, you start filling out personal profile information, beginning with the name of your high school, your college or university, your current place of employment, and your current city and hometown. When you’re done, click Save & Continue.
You don’t have to complete this information right now or ever if you so choose. You can click the Skip link to move directly to step 3.
Based on the information you’ve shared so far, Facebook pulls a list of recommended friends for you. In general, these people may be in your address book or may have attended the same high school, college, or university while you were there. You can choose to add any of these people as a friend on Facebook simply by clicking the Add Friend link under the person’s name. When you do, Facebook sends a friend request to that user and alerts you if he or she accepts your friend request.
Completing step 3: Choosing interests In step 3, Facebook wants to know as much about you as you’ll allow so that pages that might interest you, such as pages for musicians, news sources, public figures, and actors. You’ll be able to immediately Like these pages.
When you Like these pages, you’ll see updates from them in your news feed. Book I You may find that some pages update too often or the content is offensive, Chapter 2 so choose wisely when Liking a page. (To Unlike a Page, see Book II, Chapter 11.)
Completing step 4: Uploading a profile picture
Your profile picture is one of the most important aspects of your Facebook account because people associate it with your updates. In step 4, Facebook offers you the option of uploading an existing image from your computer or taking a new photo with your computer’s webcam. (See Book II, Chapter 3 for tips on taking pictures with your webcam.) After you choose your photo, click Save & Continue. Your personal timeline appears, and you can start using Facebook.
It’s best to choose a picture that clearly shows your face so friends and family will recognize you immediately. (This is Facebook, after all!) We suggest using a picture of yourself, not a picture of your child, pet, favorite team, and so on. Because so many people scan their Facebook news feed quickly, it’s easier for them to spot your updates if they can clearly see your picture. In addition, using logos or other found pictures you don’t own yourself may be in violation of copyright. Contrary to what you may have heard, just because you find something interesting on the Internet doesn’t mean it’s free to use.
