Being cool on Facebook is:
#one part discretion,
#one part creativity,
#one part common sense
and
#one part being community oriented.
Coolness isn't about pushing your opinions and ideas down everyone else's news feed and it isn't about exposing yourself in embarrassing ways.
Cool Facebook users are
#calm,
#self-regulated,
caring and engaged participants who know what the limits of Facebook are and how to get the best out of the time spent on Facebook.
Here are just a few ways to be cool on Facebook:Have a life outside of Facebook.
Facebook is a way to keep others in your life, not a way to create a life.
*friends need real life interaction, not stacking up in a list.
*so don't spend all your time on what should be a tool you use wisely.
Avoid typical updates and seek the quirky instead.
When talking to your friends using Facebook, avoid the dull details that you'd never share face to face.Instead, look for ways to say interesting, different and quirky things that will cause your friends to want to read more.
Change your status about once every two days.
Clear it when you haven't done anything interesting recently.
Post regularly
but not with such frequency that people think you're wired to Facebook.
As a community member,Too many messages will come across as overbearing or annoying and you might lose connections as a result.
Avoid posting unless you have something interesting to say.
Regularity isn't an excuse for banality.
Keep your posts short and pithy.
Short and sweet will keep your Facebook reputation cool,Keep your information to a few sentences maximum.
Get yourself a blog.
If you want to explore an issue in-depth over several pages, a blog is the place to be.
Write a novel or an insightful editorial piece.
If you have something personal to say to a friend, then say it in person or via private message rather than expressing it openly on Facebook.
Compliment people. Being cool is about focusing beyond yourself and recognizing the good others have done and said. Remember to ask others what they've been up to instead of assuming they care about what you've been up to.
Don't be nosy.
Would you be nosy in real life?
The bet is that you wouldn't be half as nosy as you might be tempted to be on Facebook where the social constraints seem less real and actionable.
Don't leave comments asking people about their status updates and relationship status changes unless you know them very well. Even What they're saying may well be very different from what you're understanding.
Don't rush to answer everything. Facebook isn't ping pong. You don't need to volley back every post, question or comment. someone invites you to an event, don't respond yes or no right away. Go with "Maybe" and take your time
Remember
that whatever you post goes to everyone who is your friend on Facebook.
*Smile for the photos you add of yourself to Facebook. You're good looking, you have earned the place in the spotlight because of that smile.
*Use friends lists to segregate your different social identities online. It will help you to maintain the cool factor by not accidentally posting information.....
*Be honest in what you add. Making up wild stories about your life will rebound eventually and you'll have a hard time keeping track of your dishonest trail!
*Don't be shy to talk or to ask anybody to chat with You ... Facebook is for chatting and making friends , so use it but carefully .
* If somebody has posted on their friend's wall, don't be the first to like or comment! Otherwise, you could annoy people.
*Don't accept every friend request you receive. Be discerning about how many people you can maintain coolness for.
*Keep a list of cool quotes and funny phrases you come across in daily life.
*When you meet a really cool friend in your real life and they add you on Facebook, Wait a while to keep it cool and not rushed. A few days is fine.
*Never gossip. Everyone knows where it came from.
