I'm not sure I want to use Facebook for professional purposes. I find MySpace a bit better suited for that. Facebook for me works best as personal network that only includes my closest friends. I guess it is possible to use it as both though.

Greast list. One thing that is not mentioned is filtering your comments. Some of your old friends or family might leave unprofessional comments. Would it be wise to filter your comments?

Thanks Lee!

Hi Chelsea - there are lots of different ways to give back on Facebook. It can be as simple as helping someone out or joining (and participating) in a charity group (for example: http://www.facebook.com/s.p... you will probably need to be logged into FB to see that). BTW - tell Avi thanks :)

@ Jake - yeah, it seems to be that way more & more.

Facebook seems to be getting it right where myspace and linkedin seem to have missed the mark.

What do you mean by "be philanthropic"? What goes around comes around, I agree, but what does that have to do with facebook? helping random college kids that contact you for jobs?

ps. avi makes me read your blog every day

Great tips Chris! I read Rae's tips when I finally started FB, but these would have been/are equally useful.
