Create a Facebook Account
Facebook is a great way to keep in touch with friends and
family from college, high school, church, etc.!
It is user friendly and easy to understand. It also now has
instant messaging on it so that you can talk to other friends logged on!
Before setting up a Facebook account, you must have an e-mail address.
That will be your sign in name.
Also, you must be at least 13 years old.
Go to
http://www.facebook.com./
On that page, you will see sign up and a place to put your
full name, e-mail address, new password, gender, and birth date.
Fill out that information and click sign up.
The next step will be a security check.
It will ask you to enter the text you see in the box above.
Enter the words correctly and press sign up.
If the words are entered correctly, it will then ask you to
confirm your e-mail address.
You will need to go to the e-mail address you put and check
for an e-mail from Facebook.
The subject Facebook Registration Confirmation. In the
e-mail, it will give you a link to press to confirm your e-mail address.
It will bring you to a new screen.
The first step will be to see if your friends have an
account.
It can check it through your e-mail address book.
If you don't want to do that now, you can skip the step.
That option is at the bottom of the page.
Step 2 will ask you for some profile information.
It will ask what high school and college you attend or
attended.
This will help find classmates.
Click next and it will bring you to a page with photos.
You can then add friends from school.
You can skip this step if you like.
Step 3 is to join a network.
You do not have to join a network.
A network is a city or school you would like to be
associated with.
You can skip this step if you like.
Your profile is now made! You can add photos if you like and
add and change any information.
Become Unblocked on Facebook
When you are blocked by someone on Facebook, there are few
options to unblock yourself. In fact, unless the person unblocks you on their
own, you can't become unblocked on your own.
There is one thing that you can do, that requires setting up
a new Facebook account.
You can use your same name, but you must sign up with a
different email address.
Once the new account is set up, you can proceed to contact
the person who blocked you.
Keep in mind that the person may see your online attempts to
contact her as harassment and may block your second account as well.
Go to facebook.com and fill in the "Sign Up" section.
Enter an alternative email address that isn't attached to an
existing Facebook account in the "Your Email" and "Re-enter
Email" fields.
Click the "Sign Up" button once.
Enter the Captcha security code in the text box and click
the "Sign Up" button a second time.
Complete the Facebook account registration and find friends,
add profile information and upload a profile picture.
These items are optional and you may add them at a later
time.
Click the "Save & Continue" button to finish.
Go to your alternative email account and retrieve the
Facebook confirmation message.
You will need to click a link in that email before your new
Facebook account becomes active. Once the account is active, you can contact
the person who blocked your other account.
