Facebook Essential Training

with Garrick Chow



In Facebook Essential Training, Garrick Chow shows how to start navigating the world of social networking and put the best face forward online. The course covers the basics: creating a profile; making Facebook friends; viewing their posts with the Ticker and Timeline; communicating via status updates, the wall, and chat; and sharing photos, videos, and links. Garrick also touches on the delicate subject of removing friends and respecting other people’s privacy online. The advanced features of Facebook—including permissions, add-in applications, and dedicated groups—are also covered.
