The users of Facebook have purposely made it this way so that it can compete with other websites who offer these features. Facebook has made one website that has games, social aspects, photo uploads, and news alerts all in one. However, you do not need to partake in all of these activities to be considered an expert Facebook user.Facebook originally was set up in order to have a way to keep in touch with friends and family who might be further away over the internet. It has become increasingly popular over the past couple of years, and now has many more features to increase its value. In the past few years, because of its increasing popularity, it has added new features to keep the users entertained and keep using the application.This manual was written in hopes to provide a way to help users who might not be as familiar with the functions of Facebook and to provide a way to become more familiar with the application. ................
