Whether you’re on the road a lot or would like a more convenient way than logging into your personal computer to update your Facebook status, linking your mobile phone and your Facebook account is a definite must-do.
First of all, it’s important to note that you will be only able to access the full Facebook site on certain phones with full browsers (smart phones) such as
iPhone
Nokia N series
Blackberry
Android
Palm
Advanced Sony Ericsson models
It is therefore important to check what functions your mobile phone can perform on the site.
So what exactly can you do from your mobile phone to your Facebook account?
You can send and receive Facebook Mobile Texts.
You can send mobile texts to update your status, send a message to a friend search for phone numbers, add friends by name or phone number, post wall messages, or upload photos and videos from your phone and post events.
Likewise you can receive text messages to your phone about notifications for friend requests, messages, wall posts, and status updates from your friends.
However you will need to first register your phone to activate this function. You can do this by clicking on the Mobile tab in your Account Settings and following the prompts.
You can upload photos, video files and notes
There are two ways to do this:
At the bottom of your home page, look for the bookmarks link
Click ‘photos’ then the ‘upload photos’ link
Pick a photo to upload from your phone by clicking the ‘choose file’ button.
Write some text for the photo in the ‘photo caption’ box
Click ‘upload’
Or
You can email or text the photo or video to your personalized Facebook email address and it will be loaded onto your account.
You can edit your privacy settings: namely Basic Directory Information, Block List, Public Search, and Sharing on Facebook.
