The Official Facebook Thread

Hi Everyone, Thanks in advance for any assistance I get.

I use facebook for my business. In the beginning one could go on facebook and do a search for people living in a certain State i was working and hundreds of names would pop up that were on facebook. I could contact these people and network with them and it worked BEAUTIFULLY.

Since Facebook restructured their site and included this timeline it is IMPOSSIBLE to network like I did in the beginning. Now one can't even send updates to the friends I already have. I will get a notice that I'm using the site wrong and they warn me of being suspended.

I know there is a way to getting around this issue, I just am not computer/facebook savvy to figure it out.

PLEASE if there is someone on the planet that knows what the hell I'm talking about and knows a way around this very frustrating problem please PM me .

Again, thanks in advance for any help .

I pretty much only use it for family.

One time my dad fractured his hip and I could not reach anyone by phone so I posted it on Facebook and then everyone called me.

After that, I would post his photo as he stabilized, as a way of letting family across the USA and UK see how he was doing.

I really do not have time to keep up with it on a daily basis.

I think my youngest daughter uses it to keep a running stream of consciousness with her thoughts...

I use FB to keep in touch with friends and chosen family.

I used to be addicted to Farmville, but as of late I barely look at it. They keep expanding and adding new farms and it takes up more time than I want to give up to it.
