You login to Facebook to do some ministry but instead spend 30 minutes looking at what old friends are doing, following endless rabbit trails of links, and start playing Farmville and Fishville simultaneously.
To maximize your time spent on Facebook you need to optimize your news feed to eliminate distractions and allow for easy navigation of subgroups of people that pertain to ministry.
Do you have any tips that make you more effective?
UPDATE :
A couple of items in Brian’s screencast are now located in different places on Facebook; please see the images below.
To hide posts from a user, you now need to click on the 'X' at the right side of their post in your news feed.
To organize your friends into Lists, you must now begin by clicking the 'Edit Friends' link in the 'Account' drop-down menu ...
... then, in the Friends screen, click the 'Edit Lists' drop-down menu next to each friend, to choose which lists you want to add them to. Or click the '+ Create a List' button at the top of the screen to start a new one.
To view news updates from a particular friend list, choose it from the 'Most Recent' drop-down menu on the News Feed page.
