PCWorld: Giving Your Facebook Profile A Professional Edge

PC World staffer Kristin Burnham looks at four top applications for adding a more professional look and feel to a Facebook profile, including tools for adding your Twitter and blog feeds.


“Sure, trivial and time-guzzling Facebook Apps abound ( Farmville, anyone?), but-believe it or not- other applications can add a hint of professionalism to your profile. You can include your LinkedIn profile, add your blog feed, include a Twitter tab and more.

Each of these applications requires that you allow it access to your profile. To edit each application’s individual settings, choose “Application Settings” from the “Account” drop-down menu. From here, you can control who is able to see the application from your profile, if you want to bookmark it and whether you give the application permission to publish recent activity to your wall.”
