2 billion internet users and 750 million of them on Facebook; that is really telling something about Facebook, isn’t it? Today we will tell you about some of the things that you should not really be doing on Facebook, for you own good, whether through individual use or business.
No 10. Give Facebook email priority
You know to login into Facebook you have to use you real email, don’t you? So, don’t give up on your genuine email providers, they are far more reliable and facilitative than Facebook’s.
No 9. Have 2 profiles
Keeping a Personal and a Professional profile will surely get you into trouble. First of all, you don’t want you accounts to be shutdown; yes, if Facebook catches you, your both accounts will be shut down for good. Secondly, it is really really hard and complicated to update you both accounts while keeping things from mixing up. Sure, you don’t want your colleagues to have a look at you family photos; just use the Facebook privacy settings, they are infact pretty good and effective.
No 8. Like any page which gives you a free iPhone
Seriously, iPhone (or something similar) for just liking a page; you have to be amazingly stupid to believe these. Look at this page for example, Free IPHONE 4 for first 500,000 members, it has almost 25,000 likes already. It’s like they have a billion dollar to spare.
No 7. Join groups which are just a ‘statement’
Joining pages which say “Don’t Give Up On Someone That U Can’t Go A Day Without Thinking About Them” really doesn’t do you any good, does it? Being a fan of Fringe(TV Show), Tranformers(Movie) or even Starbucks is logical, and fine; you keep up-to-date on any latest happenings. “Click “like” if you love your daughter!” really? Is it going to bring her some gifts or what?

These are RE-RE suggestions IMO. If you have a professional life at all you BETTER have two FB accounts. Trusting FB privacy settings with your career is a really bad idea. Don’t communicate privately? Why not? Do you really need to ask a buddy how his doctor visit went on his wall? Why would you text him separately if you can see he is online on FB right then… The comment on religion or politics does not matter as long as you have two accounts. Keep one politically correct for co-workers, business acquaintances, and employers to see.
It is hard to take this article seriously when there are so many grammatical errors. The editor (or columnist) needs to double check their work before submitting. For me, sites lose all credibility when something so easy to catch slips between the cracks. It sounds like a 10 year old wrote this.
11.) Don’t post pics of what you are about to eat!
do comment on politics! dont be just a sheep. show you are not satisfied
Hmm… Was this article written by Zuckerberg??? Sounds like it anyways. The birthday one is good though. The rest? Meh.
The 9th rule cracked me up, really. According to my experience there are many people that keep several, even tens, fake profiles – scammers! Thought they´re reported, FB doesn´t do ANYTHING with them, it takes pride with the huge number of users! Sorry but I dare say that more than 60% FB accounts are fake!
