One should not friend another whom they have no association or connection with what soever. Doing so makes you what I like to call a ‘creeper’.
Poke with moderation and caution (I stand firmly by this etiquette principle).
When speaking with someone whom you have been casually ‘facebook stalking’, try to pretend you do not know everything about them. Avoid comments like: “So, I saw you and Mike broke up on facebook…”
Drunken facebooking can get you in trouble… Try to restrain yourself from leaving an inebriated wall post on that cute guy or girl’s profile.
Additionally, writing on your own wall is somewhat of a "faux pas" (I believe strongly in this one as well).
Beware of potential employers browsing facebook photos. That body shot or keg stand picture might not encourage hiring.
One’s profile should not be overloaded with unnecessary applications (such as Superpoke, Food Fight, ect.), Facebook is not meant to be like myspace. Keep in mind that you can delete an apps boxon your page and still keep its functionality.
Being part of too many Facebook groups devalues the ones you truly care about, try to stick to a select few (under 25?).
One’s popularity is based on the number of “Happy Birthday!!!!!”wall posts they receive. Do not forget to leave one on good friends ’walls on their special day.
Finally (for now), do use Facebook as a way to keep in touch with people whom you otherwise might not but do not let it replace actual human interaction (easier said than done).
Facebook is great for stalking finding people whom you only know by first name and sight. But this only works if their user pic is actually a picture of them and not their cat or their feet.
