If you’re a Facebook newbie, you may wonder, “How do I avoid making humiliating etiquette blunders and faux pas?” Here’s some great advice from Big Fuel, consumer engagement agency.
Summary
1. Don’t change your relationship status without consulting the other person.

5. Don’t start hate groups.
More tips from Debrett’s Etiquette Bible
1. You don’t have to make friends with people you don’t know. Think before you poke.
2. Wait 24 hours before accepting or removing someone as a friend. The delay will help you gather your thoughts.
3. Birthdays, engagements and weddings are not “virtual” events. Always send cards or phone friends when there is an important event.
4. Think before posting a friend’s photo what you would feel like if it was you.
5. Think carefully about your profile picture. Would you want it to be appearing in your local newspaper?
