Rating:  - Facebook The Missing Manual
I was a bit disappointed. Yes, this book sped up my learning curve of the basics (which I would have eventually figured out on my own), but I was looking for more information on specific applications, etc. What I am supposed to do when someone sends me a plant and the rest of the stuff they send me, and ask me to send something back? How do I do that - why would I do that? What does it all mean? That's what I'm looking for.
Rating:  - Great Book for Facebook Newbies, However Those Familiar With Facebook Won't Find Much of Use Within the Pages
This is a great book for computer beginners and even those yet to or even who have just joined Facebook. It is certainly laid out in a lot more user friendly format than Facebook For Dummies, is easier to read, more colourful (Dummies is black and white on the inside), has better images, has more information (although a lesser word count) and is just a nicer looking book to read or flick through than Dummies.
What this book isn't though, is much use to those who have been on a Facebook ... Read More
Rating:  - Good, lacking some information
I bought both this and Facebook For Dummies (For Dummies (Computer/Tech)). This book did include some tips not present in Facebook For Dummies, but didn't have many of the tips found in Facebook For Dummies. I also felt like Facebook For Dummies did a better job of explaining why Facebook does things a certain way, and how the whole system works together. That's probably a result of Facebook For Dummies being written by Facebook insiders, while The Missing Manual was written by outsiders.

Facebook: The Missing Manual by E. A. Vander Veer
O'Reilly is on point again with this latest addition to The Missing Manual series.
Facebook was started as a collegiate networking site that opened its doors to everyone in September 2006. My experience with social networking
platforms dates back to Friendster.com and the more popular Myspace.com, and I was excited to join Facebook, and did so quickly.
I'm a 'once-a-day' visitor of Myspace.com, and have become quite ... Read More
Rating: - Useful information about Facebook for newbies and the longtimers alike
I have been a Facebook user since 2005, when the social network was limited only to college kids (I worked in a college: I was not a college student at the time). Seeing it evolve as it has in recent months has been a pleasant thing as it has allowed me to reconnect with old friends that I had effectively lost touch with.
As a longtime user, I thought I knew most of what Facebook had to offer, but this Missing Manual proved that there was lots more that I had no clue about. I was unaware of ... Read More
