Your Facebook profile provides a basic way for people to recognize and get in touch with you. It contains your name, location, education, work history and photo -- information that friends and colleagues can use to differentiate between you and anyone who shares your name. If people can't find you, they can't connect with you. To get the most out of networking on Facebook, make your profile visible to everyone instead of just your friends.
