Chat to people using Facebook messenger
We have set up a Facebook page for this class which you can make use
of as you learn new skills - www.facebook.com/ucdcomputers
Some Lingo to start you off!
Timeline - your own page where your stuff will appear
Newsfeed - a continuously updating screen containing material that your friends put on their page
Post - to put something on your page
Like - a button you can press under what someone else has Posted to tell them that you have
enjoyed reading it
Comment - to write a reply under what someone else has Posted in answer to it
Interface - the page that is in front of you and how it looks, how it is laid out etc.
Messenger - a place to send Private Messages to an individual Friend. These Messages can only
be seen by you and them. This is different to Posting on your own or another person’s
page/Timeline which can be seen by all of your/their friends.
Status - Posting what you are doing, how you are feeling or anything else that you might want to
say on your page/Timeline.
