Отрывок из книги

Facebook connects you with the people you know and care about. It enables you to communicate, stay up-to-date, and keep in touch with friends and family anywhere. It facilitates your relationships online to help enhance them in person. Specifically, Facebook connects you with the people you know around content that's important to you. Whether you’re the type to take photos or look at them, or write about your life or read about your friends’ lives, Facebook is designed to enable you to succeed. Maybe you like to share websites and news, play games, plan events, organize groups of people, or promote your business. Whatever you prefer, Facebook has you covered.

Facebook offers you control. Communication and information sharing are powerful only when you can do what you want within your comfort zone. Nearly every piece of information and means of connecting on Facebook come with full privacy controls, allowing you to share and communicate exactly how — and with whom — you desire.

.....

Look, keeping up with friends is great, but lots of people log in to Facebook simply to be entertained. Facebook uses cues from friends to try and find the videos that are most likely to be of interest to you. Additionally, Facebook produces original content that can be found in a section of the site called Facebook Watch. If you enjoy gaming and watching livestreams of esports, there are also lots of ways to have that itch scratched in the Gaming sections of Facebook. You can learn more about gaming in Chapter 15.

It's a sad fact of life that sometimes events happen beyond our control. Disasters great and small befall everyone at one time or another. While Facebook tends to be a place for sharing the good stuff, its tools also work very well to help with some of the logistics of recovering from certain types of disasters. Safety Check is a feature that gets turned on in certain geographic regions after natural disasters or security attacks. This feature allows people to easily notify their wider Facebook community that they are okay and can even help them coordinate with the services they might need. Facebook’s Groups feature was used to help coordinate civilian boat evacuations after a hurricane flooded Houston, Texas, in 2017. Because people live so much of their lives on Facebook, Facebook winds up being there for both the good and the bad.
