    more from this reviewer

    The next best thing to having an experienced guide right with you.

    The authors are the managers of the Facebook operation itself. They start the reader off with the basic rationale for the original design - friends you know and trust; people with whom you have something in common as a basis for trust (only three communities: schools or colleges; workplace(s); the one region in which you live and can normally find it easy to talk with someone. The use of photographs and/or stories is simple to use in enhancing your friendships. It's very intuitive.

    As a second way to make use of Facebook, the authors promote starting and building a business on the internet. You are seeking to establish customers and their repeat business, so you want to know something about their needs and how your business can help (and how Facebook use can help).

    Face the Fact You Are A Facebook Dummy

    Okay, so I'm a dummy. I had been wondering what all this Facebook stuff was all about, so I thought I'd better find out.
    It seemed a good enough idea to trust in a couple with expertise and that's what Leah Pearlman and Carolyn Abram provide in their immensely detailed "Facebook for Dummies".
    In simple language and a contagious sense of humor, these two Facebook Product Managers explain the finer points of the value of Facebook, the social networking website.
    You can work through the book right from the start with step-by-step stages.
    In "Getting Started with Facebook", they explain how Facebook isn't about how many friends you have , but how it can become a business promotion, advertising, an organizational tool to plan events and join groups, networking and a whole host of other uses ,that you probably didn't realize is on offer
    So, it 's not just about somebody sharing with the world "just had a hotdog"!
    Facebook for Dummies is interesting, funny and essential for those who want to maximize their use of Facebook.

    Not very useful

    I didn't find really anything in this you couldn't figure out just as easily on the Facebook site. This is a pretty high-priced book that is not worth the money.

    Facebook for Dummies - Updated?

    I haven't yet purchased this book. Before I make my purchase, I would like to know if the content still works with the new updates and changes which Facebook recently made.

    Would hate to purchase the book only to find that half of the information is no longer valid. ie: Fan/Business pages no longer have their unique look, and other changes.

    Please advise. Thanks, Eydie :)

    Used this 'dummies' book for the applications. Found this book helpful

    The only comment I have is that Facebook does not have real comprehensive guidelines for newbe face users. This dummie book helps BUT will still need 'decoding', reading from other sources and help from someone.

    On the good side at least you will sound like you know what you want...it is only a few months since publish dates and the newest face out in the paperworld.
