Before you add someone send a message. Adding more people especially if you have a business expands your network even to people you will never meet.
Between that and what is seemingly FaceBook's ever-changing privacy policy, I have resisted the urge to join. I have a small business and feel I should be on the site but I just don't trust it. Any advice? Thanks.
People should not announce when they are going on vacation so people don't go over and rob them.
Facebook is the best because only friends can see your profile and you can also chose to change your privacy settings so that you don't come up under search. Also there is an option so that ads can't use your pictures. When you post something on Facebook you have an option of who sees your post. This works great for example if you are talking bad about your boss to your friends and you don’t want the boss to see this lol. Facebook posts are more personal than Twitter. If you are looking to connect with friends you KNOW, use Facebook. Twitter is meant to keep up to date, in essence, with people you DON'T KNOW. Hope this helped!
Always see them on the webcam before you meet. People can always lie or steal people's pictures so see them on the cam.
