Book Review: Facebook: The Missing Manual, Second Edition by E. A. Vander Veer - Page 2

One of the interesting things about Facebook is that it serves as an interface between you and the real world. Did you know you can find events to attend and advertise events in which you are involved? If you think that doesn’t apply to you, you may learn differently when you want coverage of your kid’s school’s yard sale, a class reunion, or a special service or commemoration.

Facebook: The Missing Manual, Second Edition offers an entire section on mobile applications, a must-read for BlackBerry (and other smartphone) users. The information contained in every chapter is easy to understand and is illustrated with screen shots, which make it even easier to understand. If you’re tired of banging your head on your keyboard because of Facebook frustration, pick up Facebook: The Missing Manual, Second Edition so you can direct your frustration at more worthy subjects, such as cell phones and entertainment technology.

The huge assortment of games offered on Facebook are not part of this tutorial, probably because most of the games require their own comprehensive manuals. Gamers who need advice should consult fellow gamers and bulletin boards created for their needs.

Facebook is a useful tool for both social and business applications. Whether you want to make new friends electronically or collaborate on projects professionally, Facebook can help. Facebook: The Missing Manual, Second Edition makes it easier to understand the variety of applications available through Facebook, sort through the things for which you may want or need it, and utilize it for the best return on your investment of time.

Bottom Line: Would I buy Facebook: The Missing Manual, Second Edition? As someone who has often felt lost in Facebookland, absolutely!
