Facebook = status updates, comments, likes, pictures, videos, friends, fan pages, groups, events, and more pictures.
It seems almost impossible to use these features in a productive manner, but if you do the following, you may realize some benefits beyond your notifications of tagged pictures:
1. Set a time limit for yourself. (I use StayFocused to limit my time spent on Facebook to 20 minutes/day)
Time management = Self Discipline + Efficiency.
2. Find companies and organizations you want to be a part of.
Now, more than ever before, companies are trying to build their online presence with pages on social networking sites, (even Facebook). So it doesn't hurt to become a fan of a company you are applying to. Occasionally, they may update their status with a job opening and contact information. Using Facebook as an additional line of communication can really help set you apart when HR is faced with tons of resumes and cover letters via e-mail.
3. Log off.
