What's a facebook? How does it work?

[Greg B]

Facebook is a social networking site. It's very simple to use and is actually quite handy. It'l let you keep in touch with old friends, share pictures, send messages, etc etc. You do have to make an account to use facebook, but it's very easy and simple to do.

You do have to be careful though, because whatever information you put on your facebook page is now out on the internet. You can make your profile private so only your friends can see it, or public so anyone can view it. It's very important to not put info on like your address or phone number if you don't want a specific friend with access to your facebook site to see!
