Find people you know on Facebook or
simply make new friends. Heres how:

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Log on to your facebook account.

  2. Step 2

    On the top left side highlight the headline "friends" located on the blue stripe and a box should appear underneath.

  3. Step 3

    Click on the now viewable "find friends" link

  4. Step 4

    Now you have several options. You may either look for friends via their email address, through their Aol Instant Messenger screenname or Windows live username, or through their name and school they may have attended.

  5. Step 5

    If you have attempted searching for someone through these methods and still have had no luck you can always try searching a close friend of theirs. Once you become friends with this individual you can search their friends and search for your "friend" through that method. To facilitate you with this annoying task Facebook also offers a special "friend suggestions" box in the home menu on your right side.

Tips & Warnings
  • If your friend is no where to be found theres a possibility he or she does not own a facebook account. In this case you can either extend your search to the myspace social networking site.
