Facebook thanks you for your feedback, and that person can send another friend request. If you click No, Facebook won’t allow that person to send you another friend request. If you don’t accept a friend request, Facebook doesn’t tell the person who sent the request. However, the person can figure it out. For instance, if she looks at her own list of friends and you aren’t there, or if she looks at your personal timeline and sees the +1 Add Friend button instead of theFriend Request Pending button, she’ll realize you didn’t accept her request. If you ignore a friend request or click the Not Now button, that person can still see any public updates you post. If you’re the one who initiated the friend request, you can see public posts by the person to whom you sent the request. As mentioned, the Follow feature is a great alternative if you aren’t ready to be Facebook friends with someone.
Finding and Customizing Your Account Settings
You can control the information you share on Facebook in three areas: General Account Settings, Privacy Settings, and Timeline. The last two are described in Chapters 3 and 4, respectively, of this minibook. You can find your General Account Settings page by clicking the down arrow or the gear (depending on the version of Facebook you have), at the far-right end of the blue toolbar at the top of any Facebook page, and choosing Account Settings from the menu. The General Account Settings page appears, as shown in Figure 2-6.
The options appear on the left. The next sections describe each option and show you how to control the option to suit your Facebook needs.

General Account Settings
Your General Account Settings page (refer to Figure 2-6) lists the basics of your account and allows you to edit that information. You see options for editing your name, username, e-mail, password, networks, and language. You also have the option to download a copy of your Facebook data. We explain each of these options in the following sections details about the Privacy and Blocking settings, see Chapter 4 of this minibook. Name setting The Name row shows the name you registered when you created your Facebook account. This name is what others see when you share content. If you click the Edit link, you can change your first and last names and add your middle name if you like. You can also use the drop-down list to choose how your name appears on your timeline.
Most people display their name as First, Last. The alternative-name option lets you include a nickname or maiden name to help others find you. If you make any changes here, you need to confirm them by typing your Facebook password in the Password text box and then clicking the Save Changes button. You can change your name only three times.
Username setting A username is a customized URL for your Facebook account and is sometimes referred to as a vanity URL. Facebook assigns a unique number to all new accounts and uses that number in the address for your personal timeline. For example, click over to your personal timeline and look in the address bar of your browser. You probably see something like this:
http: //www. facebook. com/profile. php? id=1018974455
24 General Account Settings
The long string of numbers following id= is your account ID. That ID is pretty hard to remember and more than a little inconvenient to include on a business card. When you choose a username, the numbers in the URL for your timeline are replaced. For example:
https: //www. facebook. com/scottwayres
To set your username, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to your General Account Settings page and click the Edit link next to Username.
2. Verify your account via your mobile phone (if it’s not already verified).
If you’ve just established your Facebook account, it may not be verified yet (even if you clicked the link in the e-mail that Facebook sent you when you signed up). If that’s the case, you can wait a little longer until Facebook confirms your verification, or you can click the Verify via Mobile Phone option. To verify via your phone, do this:
a. Click the Verify via Mobile Phone link.
b. Use the drop-down list to choose the correct country code for your cell- phone’s number.
c. In the Phone Number text box, type your cellphone number.
d. Some users will be given the option to select whether they prefer to receive a text or an automated phone call. Most users will not have a choice and will be sent a text message.
