Admin — Thu, 02 Apr 2009 07:51:32 +0000

The face book social networking website sees South Africa fanatics login to their profile daily and is growing with new members at a fast rate around the world. This online network facility which allows users to connect with friends and family as well as re-unite with old school friends and acquaintances has quickly taken over from MySpace as the place to socialise online. If you spend any time at all on the Internet and have never heard of this facility then you must be living life with your head under a rock!

Recent changes to the face book website have had users in South Africa and all over the world up in arms as people were so used to the previous layout and design. There are even groups to join for people that do not like the new facebook layout with millions of members all getting together in an attempt to have it changed back to the way things were. Will they change it back? Maybe, probably not, we are of the opinion that the staff have done their research and that the changes made are for the users benefit and once everybody gets used to the change, calm will be restored!

Whether you like the new design layout or not, this still remains the most popular place to find old friends, meet new friends and socialise in your own personal community online. It has become such a popular place to find people that even some police and detective services are using it as a place to find alleged criminals and certain individuals online. It is a great place for those living abroad to hook up and keep in touch with friends and family on the Internet which can help a great deal for those living and working in foreign countries. If you have never heard of it, get your head out and ask someone to help you sign up so that you too can be a part of the ever-growing face book social community website.

Facebook help is available for people who need assistance with the popular social networking website and may have questions they want answered on certain related topics or issues. Among the many problems people experience are how to disable email notifications so that they stop receiving so many emails from Facebook every day. This is done easily under a persons profile and the ‘Notifications’ tab, radio buttons can be checked or unchecked depending on a persons preferences. Many disable everything so that they stop getting emails from the site completely.

Those who need help with Facebook often want to know why their profile is so slow to load and the common answer to this kind of question is that you have too many applications running on your page. Some of these require more time to load especially if they contain graphics and can slow down a profile page considerably. If you are experiencing slow loading times within your profile area then consider removing some of the applications that you do not use or can do without. People who have been part of the social networking community for some time have clean, application free, fast loading profile pages.

Some people are a little hesitant to become a part of these kinds of websites as they feel they do not want their personal details on the Internet. That is fair enough but you really only need supply the information on a profile that suits you, certain information that you are not prepared to share, you just do not share! Other questions related to abuse, login problems, profiles and page content, applications and business accounts or pages can all be found online to assist those looking for Facebook help on the Internet.

Unblock Facebook Or MySpace – Can You and How?

Admin — Mon, 01 Dec 2008 16:27:47 +0000

Unblock Facebook or MySpace by simply filling in the simple details on the form below and you will have instant access to the social community websites again. That is the claim made by many sites around the Internet that make the promise that they can get you into your account no matter what kind of block has been put on the computer you are using. They claim that by using an anonymous bypass proxy you will be able to slip past any kind of filter placed in your way to stop you accessing certain websites across the web.

Most people looking for a way to unblock a Facebook or MySpace account are working on a pc at school or a computer in the office at work. Many schools and companies put these blocking filters on their systems to prevent students and employees from accessing social networking websites and spending time chatting to friends and exploring when they are supposed to be working or studying. This is a very common occurrence happening everyday and all over the world and is seen as a big problem for schools colleges and companies.

Very simply, it is quite possible to do this and these basic programs simply attempt to hide your computers IP address. So in essence the usual IP address of the computer you are using is marked as blacklisted by the website you cannot enter but the program hides your address and allows you to surf the web anonymously. This means that you should be able to then surf the web and visit any site on the Internet. So in actual fact these types of programs do not unblock Facebook or MySpace but merely hide your true identity from them.

The Facebook.com Phenomenon

The Facebook.com Phenomenon

Admin — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 18:23:44 +0000

Bringing facebook.com users together around the world, social networking has exploded and this site is at the forefront.

The facebook.com network launched in the month of February 2004 and since then the facebook phenomenon has swept the world and now has over 8 million users in America alone and stands as the second biggest social network on the Internet with MySpace still being first. It all got started by a student called Mark Zuckerberg studying at Harvard University in the U.S. who was doing it as one of his hobbies at the time. Popularity of the project began to spread like wildfire and before long Mark Zuckerberg was quitting Harvard and taking two of his fellow students with him to develop and promote the facebook network on a full time basis.

It is reported that the facebook.com domain name was purchased for a price of around $200.000. The network was originally only available to students and ex-students of colleges and universities around the world but now anybody can sign up for a facebook account online. And they do, in their millions! People networking, finding facebook friends, experimenting with applications, joining facebook groups and so on.

Rumors were flying recently that facebook was going to be shut down because of allegations the the founder Mark Zuckerberg stole source code from another social networking site called ConnectU. The law suit was dismissed after he denied all the allegations.

Joining this popular social network website is quick and easy and when you get started the basics allow you to create your facebook profile, upload photo’s, invite friends, write on peoples face book walls and join various networking groups. You can even start your own groups and invite facebook friends to join your group.

Nobody can predict the future of social networking exactly but we are prepared to stick out our necks and say that facebook is definitely going to be around for a very long time to come. So if you haven’t joined the millions already may we suggest you head on over to facebook.com and sign up for your account today.
