Understanding Facebook Emoticons Information Flow

admin — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 22:44:21 +0000

As a social networking site, Facebook Emoticons acts much like a broadcasting service,
sharing news about its members wherever they are. However, rather
than tuning in to see general news about everyone on the site or stories
selected entirely by Facebook Emoticons, your news is narrowed down to just the
people you know—your friends, family, coworkers, or colleagues. The
news that is shared, whether it’s status updates, photos, or the latest group
someone joined, is referred to as stories on Facebook Emoticons. This news is also
called feed stories or news feed stories. The information that appears on
the Home page is a constant stream of stories about the activities and pursuits
of your friends. The official name for this is news feeds. The stories
that appear on your profile are called mini-feeds because they’re all about
you.
For example, anytime you post a status update on your Wall, it’s a story
on your mini-feed—information dedicated to you.

How to Communicate on Facebook Emoticons

You can’t have a social networking site without avenues to communicate,
and Facebook Emoticons has plenty. You’ve already learned how to express yourself
on your profile page by writing on your Wall. This particular form of
communication is generated by you for the purpose of letting people
know what you’re up to. When they pop by your profile page, they see
your activities and any status updates you post to the Wall. You’ve also
learned how to add a status update directly from the Home page so it
appears out in the news feed for others to see on their Home pages, too.
Wall communication goes both ways—friends can write on your Wall,
and you can also write on your friends’Walls to communicate with them.
You might write a new posting, or comment on existing postings on a
friend’s Wall. Anyone else who views the friend’s page can also see your
postings and comments.
If you join a group, you can communicate through postings on the group
Wall. You can learn more about Facebook groups in Lesson 10, “Joining
Groups.” Like any other Wall communication,

Sharing Videos on Facebook Emoticons

You’re not just limited to static images (that is, photos) on Facebook Emoticons. You
can also share videos. Whether you call them movies, videos, or multimedia
clips, the result is still the same—a dynamic clip that you can play and
watch. You can add videos to your profile page that, in turn, appear on the
news feed of the Home page. You can also add videos to your notes and
group pages, and even embed them on outside sites. Like photos, you can
tag people in your videos, and add comments to them.
There are a few stipulations with using videos on Facebook Emoticons, as follows:
. The video must be made by you or your friends.
. The video must be under 1024 MB in size and less than 20 minutes
in length. If you’re a brand new user, the limits may be
smaller for you until you verify your account.
. The video should contain you or a friend.
Basically, you’re not allowed to upload illegal copies of television shows,
music videos, movies, or any content that’s not made by you or a friend.
The video content should be yours and yours alone. You’re also expected
to comply with Facebook’s Emoticons terms of service regarding the content you
post. In other words, don’t post copyrighted or pirated videos, or clips of
questionable taste or subject matter. Facebook Emoticons even makes you agree to
this the first time you upload a video.
