I noticed that with Google + and thought what a cool tool.  I have yet to find the time to use either Google + or FAcebook as well as I should.

Craig, I know I am not using Facebook efficiently for business.  I am not sure if I really want to.... but feel if I knew more, perhaps I could use Facebook to increase my exposure...

You always write good material. Unfortunately for me (and I realize I am odd man out on tis) I hate fb and google due to the way they run their business and completely violate privacy of all who use them.

Regardless of my personal stance, as mentioned, great advice for those who use and dont care and agree SUGGESTED

Thanks again for all the good info. I haven't really done much to my Facebook, and haven't yet worked on the business page. I am so behind! But thanks to you, another gem of advice.

Is that what you were testing this morning? I really like this idea...I have too many former collegues who are FB friends and I tend to miss the latest comments from my family and close friends...I will now create groups to better see their status updates and such. Thanks. D

I use those lists all the time but find I am on Facebook all day that I never really have time to filter anyone. I just see it all.... Maybe after thousands of friends I could do that.  And Google and Facebook are constantly checking up on one another to do something similar like the Google profile pages - now have timeline looking covers etc.. I just let them duke it out for my time. HA! Hey, I haven't followed very close, did you get another job? What are you doing these days?

Another great post!  I have not delved into Google+ because I already feel like I am overwhelmed by techological options!  (But I love the list option in Facebook.  Have been using them for a while)

Tammy - some days I keep up with it all, mostly not, that's why the lists help me get quick glimpses into portions of my world that matter most. FB and G+ can dual all they want I agree, we get great new features! I'm still looking for the right connection to full-time employment again. Meanwhile, keeping busy with part-time projects. Thanks for asking :)

Debbie - love those words, thanks

Melissa - it makes more sense after doing it, I'm really liking the views

Cindy - so much to teach, so little time :) thx

Marc - I thought FB had done all the timeline updates by now, I guess not?? You should be able to click a button on the bottom of this page to get it anytime http://www.facebook.com/about/timeline

Nancy - without a business page especially do these lists come in handy if you have an all-in-one experience business and personal account

Gabe - they could have made it easier! it is not bad once you see where they hide stuff

Alan - much easier, thanks for visiting :)

Kathryn - Google+ is easy enough to figure out I think - social media sort of makes more sense now than when it was first introduced - we already understand all the concepts - check it out sometime, it is worth it I think :)

Since I have learned how to use lists effectively I have actually been getting business from them. Targeting only those who I know will want to see the posts has allowed Facebook to actually share it rather than bury it like they do so many other things.

I also think the FB lists are a bit difficult to manage.  It is hard to get all of your friend catorigized.

Even with the lists I still don't completely trust FB and won't post anything there that I wouldn't want the world to see.  One time years ago they sent a video link to one of my cousins saying it was from me and I didn't like that.  Can't trust them now.
