There are a lot of articles that have been written about how unsuspecting teenagers and adults (think Anthony Weiner) can get themselves into a bind when it comes to social media. One of our friends recently told us a story where a Dad was using his wall to search for things. So brutal right?
So most of us aren't in that bad of a state, but we can all use reminders now and then. So here is a reminder of some of the most important things to click on while using facebook.
Unfriend - Probably the most important option on all of facebook. This button is the social media equivalent of "getting the dirt off your shoulder". YogueIN suggests you use this button as generously as you can. Don't be stingy with it.
uses: break ups, girl fights, being too creepy with someone elses page, mentally just not wanting to be linked to someone, cleaning up your social contacts
X - This button allows you to close any and all pictures.
uses: closing pictures of your ex with his/her new girlfriend/boyfriend, closing pictures of friends taking pictures of themselves in the bathroom mirror, closing the millionth baby picture, closing pictures of those dumb birthday/tag me in this note/tag yourself in this if.../the drama queen/the jock etc etc etc etc etc. The list literally goes on forever. Be so grateful for this X.
Leave This Conversation - This one we used for the first time today. This button allows you to exit any "reply all" type message situation on fb.
uses: group conversations regarding any type of event planning (wedding showers, baby showers, a group looking for a bridesmaid dress, really anything that it will kill you to receive more than one message about. No one likes being tricked and thinking they've got a cool message from someone and then it starts out "Hey Guys! So I was thinking . . ."
Anyway, these are our favorite buttons/actions on facebook, what are yours??
