Tami and all. I got tried just reading your email. :0) The phone is faster. It
doesn't give a person a format to blast you and the list protects a person from
that or stops it as soon as it starts. I'll stick with the list.

Thanks Tami. I stopped reading after the second paragraph, so I know
its not for me. I have 2 facebook accounts (one is for the business) and
checked
them once a week. Its a huge time vampire. No one has 2000 friends
they need to talk to everyday. No way.
It has its goods point, and I like those. BUT it can be a HUGE time
waster, and I recognize that too.
And I hear if you try closing your FaceBook account is almost
impossible. I guess I'll find out when I get there.
Like everything in life, moderation, moderation, moderation.
Off to work....the real life.

Dear people who think facebook is timeconsuming,
>I once thought this too an
rebelled at the seeming need for a facebook page to find and keepin touch
with
people I wanted to. Now, as a face book pro I know that you can spend as much
or as little time as you like on it.Tips for beginners#1 go to settings and
disable games! This alone cuts you time line in half. #2 add whoever u like
as
a friend because you can make titled folders to put them in. I have dog
people,music people, misc friends.family now When you get friend requests you
can accept them and send them directly to whater fold you like now you have
had a page for a week and now have 500 friends.The neat thing about facebook
is the status people put describing how they, what they are thingetc and also
(check in) meaning fb pulls up a gps signal of establishments near you that
you can click to tell your friends where you are and what you are doing!
Pretty much a "sralkers helper" but I haveused it for meeting friends on the
road. Back to this timeline,whren u click on
> timeline it displays a
realtime scrolling list of what all your friends who have had something to
say
or wanted to show you something have posted(including pics,maps,links,
videos)
all there to read or not read anytime throughout your day.Remember those
custom name files you sent different friends to? Well you can designate which
folders to or not to show time lines for.so say you have 500 friends with 375
dog people and 51 in closer friends/dog people,and 33in business contacts,an
17 old friends/high school and 24 in the family folder. You can tell it which
folders timeline to display. So if u click family you only get the days
ramblings from those 23 people.From your home page you can type in search add
a couple lettwrs and it fills in a friends name and if ckicked takes you to
their homepage and you can read as much or as little as you like. I check my
face book about 3 times a day as such... When i get up while dogs are
pottying
click on my home page and it has alerts f
>or private messages to me, alerts
to if someone wrote on your wall( this is the face of your page and u can
leave posts viewable or hidden)by others or yourself.i read my private
messages then click on newsfeed and quickly speed through my friends pics
posts etc whatever catches my fancy. If u dont read them all no big deal they
jusy acroll away and later if u go to the persons page u can read what you
missed. Fb has unlimited photo albums which makes it ideal for sharing
pictures and storing them safly online. It also suports mp4 and avi video
formats in regular or high def. Face book also has a messenger( another
stalker helper) there is a clickable icon in bottom right corner to bring up
a
list of Ll your contacts that are online. Clicking their name opens a small
window for live chat and i think sime video char. Not in rhe charting mood?
Sign in as invisible and no one will no you are on( but they do show you as
now offline when you close out messenger) Heres another fun
> feature
of facebook making it quicker an easier to use. In your settings theres a tab
rhat says what does my page look lke to (type a name here) you can hide your
whole profile or just parts or ability to post or write on your wall to
anyone. So of your 500 friends you can configure it so only a few or even
none
can see your pictures, your friends list, any posts you make, any replys u
get. Its all very customizable to make facebook as big or little part of your
life as you want it to be. I must say finding soneone in messenger and
contacting them when my car broke down was pretty great! Seeing a friends
post
in the newslime that their dog was missing got her back home in hours.within
fb there are also groups, several German Shepherd ones. Fb shepherd people
worldwide save the lovely Nixxe The Tanks now have. They keep us up to date
on
everyrhing! The upcoming world show, DM testing,ofas new tooth
registry,available stud dogs, black redessive,coat factored,can add tons pf
p
>ics, short videos and add links! All thisis optional! You can use fb
merely as a selective email service Iguess but there is so much more
available
to us now ! I ask the Face Book frady cats to please give it a try(ill offer
to set you up a page if you like and teach u to enjoy not be intimidated by
it
or think its more time consuming then it is. Give it a try! Send me an email
if you would like help. Any other listers willing to help those who have not
took rhe plunge yet to learn FB please leave your name an email for people to
reach you.
> One last comment is regarding fb critters. They are easy
to avoid if you do not click any links until you have emailed the person a
link came from asking if they sent it and requiring they put a identifying
word in the subject line of their reply. See a critter can mail to a persons
friends list as that person but they can not change subject lines! Hope to
see
a friend request from you soon!
