Facebook Controls

Hiya Sky, Have not got much time to be on Facebook really and the new Timeline I don´t use it at all I don´t care much for it so not bothering with it at the moment. I just use my page to leave messages on for my closest Friends and I don´t bother with any applications. Have uploaded Photos and all that but nothing else at the moment. Enjoy using it though. I could not read or find your Page that you had done sorry bout that logical seeing as I have not been able to get back to your discussion till now.xxx

Though I will admit that when I first became a member of facebook, I did find it somewhat confusing, the more recent changes that they have made are not really that confusing to me. The thing that I like the most about the newest batch of features that has been released is that I was able to create a list of just my closest friends. The thing that I like about that is that I don't have to search for posts that those people that I care about the most have made.

I have often found features of facebook confusing. I have had my daughter explain quite lot to me at times. And I considered computer literate. I am loading up your article now. I did discover a feature of facebook on the weekend. One can view how your facebook is seen by others. So I tested out my daughter (who is a friend) and established exactly what she can see, which is everything. Then I checked what a non-friend can see (such as my ex). It was really good that I can work out now, what i want the public to view, or not view. I am not one who makes my facebook completely private. I like the main page and wall availble to the public. But of course the news feed is only for my friends. I think this is a great feature.

I've never found Facebook's features difficult, but I've been using it for a long time. Instructional materials are always helpful for people who overlook certain aspects of social networking, especially as you said those with families.
