Facebook
is a social networking website that is operated and privately owned by
Facebook, Inc. Facebook is a
great place to connect with family, business associates, and friends. It also
offers up numerous applications, and games of which you can partake of free of
charge.
Social Networking sites are much
more than a place to connect with friends and family though, they can also be
an important place to create linkage into your articles, and blogs. Facebook is
one of the fastest growing of these sites.
Users
can add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to
notify friends about themselves. Additionally, users can join networks
organized by city, workplace, school, and region. The website’s name stems from
the colloquial name of books given at the start of the academic year by
university administrations with the intention of helping students to get to
know each other better.
You can't always wipe the slate clean and
start over in real life, but you can certainly do it on Facebook! Sometimes
it's easier to just create a new account than to fiddle with privacy settings or clean
out your friends list on your
current one. This article will show you how to create a new account and dump
the old one.
If you have an existing account, you will
need to delete it before creating a new one.
See Close the Old Account below before proceeding. Otherwise,
continue to the next step.
Go to www.facebook.com.
If you have an existing account, make sure you are logged out first.
You will see the side signup form:
Fill it out completely, make sure all the
information is accurate, and then click the Sign Up button.
Find your friends. Facebook will next ask you to search your various email
accounts for friends. You are welcome to do this at this time, or click
on Skip this step at the bottom, and continue with the sign-up
process.
Fill in profile information. Step 2 of the sign-up process is filling out basic
profile info: High school, college, and employer. Again, you may choose to fill
this out, or skip this step.
Plug in your mug. Now's your chance to shine to the world! Upload a photo
from your computer, or take a photo with your web cam. However you do it,
Facebook will take it. Of course, like the other steps, you can choose to skip
this as well.
Your new
account is ready! Remember—don't
forget to like us!
