Product Description

The eagerly anticipated update to the bestselling first edition is here!

Facebook's popularity is seemingly unstoppable. The site experienced a huge boom in registered users in the latter half of 2008. It was at that time that Facebook also underwent a radical facelift and introduced numerous changes. Packed with hundreds of screen shots, this anxiously awaited new edition presents you with a thorough update on all the exciting changes to Facebook's interface since the first edition hit the shelves a mere one year ago.

Authored by two Facebook employees, Facebook For Dummies, 2nd Edition, features unique insight and insider knowledge of Facebook that can't be found anywhere else. You'll explore optimum ways to get familiar with Facebook, tips for representing yourself online, best practices for keeping connected, how to run a business on Facebook, and more.

  • Walks you through creating a profile, navigating the interface, and setting up privacy features
  • Explains how to find and add friends, fill out your profile, add applications, and upload photos
  • Discusses ways to join a network or group or use Facebook as a scheduler
  • Addresses using Facebook to promote your business and buy ad space on Facebook

Put your best face forward and dive in to all the exciting new features that Facebook offers!

This book started out great! I'm a person whoe reads front to back and I don't move around in a book. This book is outdated, Facebook has changed it format since this book was written. So Only a part of this book is up to date. I'm sure it was great but now it is frustrating.

This is the second time I have been requested to review this product. This happens every time I purchase something from Amazon. What's going on?

Book is o.k. but not the total answer for the Facebook novice. The examples of the various screens are too small to be worth much. One would be better off to sit down with someone who has figured it out already. That is, if you can find someone who will admit to knowing much about it.


5 out of 5 stars A 'must' for any newcomer to Facebook   May 16, 2010

The second updated edition of Leah Pearlman and Carolyn Abram's FACEBOOK FOR DUMMIES is a 'must' for any newcomer to Facebook who would understand the social networking system's basic concepts. From creating a profile and navigating the site to adding applications uploading photos, and building a fan page, this packs in important keys to building an organized, revealing Facebook profile and understanding the pros and cons of Facebook's operations. Every library needs this.


4 out of 5 stars A good if long-winded introduction   March 2, 2010

Knowing nothing about Facebook before opening this book, I needed it to get me up and running quickly and painlessly. The two authors work for Facebook, which gives them a comprehensive knowledge of the application (as they say of one part: `we wrote it'), but the text does sometimes slide towards a hard sell. A more balanced critique was definitely required in places. Other reviewers are quite right that there is a lot of repetition and unnecessary tangents in the book - it could have been a lot shorter - but that seems to be the Dummies style. In all, however, it did what I wanted, which was to get me established on Facebook; exactly what it said on the cover.
