| Abstract: | Facebook represents a growing number of applications that provide communication, connection, and community building among users, so please bring your laptop to this session for an introduction to this cool new tool! We will learn how to create an account, make "friends" (connections with others you know or would like to know who share common interests), and use various functionalities such as bulletin boards, "poking," or posting content such as text, photos, and video. If the prognostications are true that e-mail is for old people and social networking is the new killer app, then come join the future! |
