Facebook Homepage is also known as News Feed, can be accessed by clicking “Home or your Name” in the upper-right corner of any Facebook page. You have two main pages of Facebook also known as News Feed and your Timeline. When you click on Home, you’ll be directed to your personal home page.
Your Facebook homepage has links for just about anything you intend to see or do on Facebook. At the center of the page, you have a column for News Feed, which features your friend’s updates.
On the left side of the page, you have clickable navigation links, which directs you to important areas of Facebook which relates to your account. These areas includes the pages you start, groups you have joined, and lists you curate and also your apps and interests.
Set on default, the News Feed at the center of the page displays the updates that your friends have posted, that are getting the most attention with replies. You can click on the down arrow close to the News Feed at the top left of your navigation links, most recent posts, and if you like to see each post from each of your friends, in the order of posting.
From the right side of the page, you can navigate down to watch a live ticker of your friend’s activities on Facebook. From here, you’ll see when they “Like” and/or comment on someone else’s status, photo, or video, as well as when they become friends with someone.
When you hover your mouse pointer on each post, it causes an enlarged version of the activity to open, in order for you to Like or comment, without having to jump to the page. Below this stream, you’ll see some of these important sections.
Events
You can click the tiny calendar, and you will see links to upcoming events in a chronological order, that you have been invited to.
Birthdays
This is represented by a tiny gift box icon, the birthdays link to view which of your friends has a birthday on that day. If you click the link, you can see the names, and be able to post happy birthday wishes, which show up directly on their pages.
The link you can use in giving a birthday gift. Tapping on the link, directs you to Facebook gifts, where you can give a gift as small as a, $5 Starbucks.

At the bottom, on the right-wing of the screen is a box marked Chat. When you click on the box, it opens a box that allows you to text to your online Facebook friends or allows you to place a video call.
From your Facebook homepage, you can get access to any of the Facebook features you want to use. Once you know what you are looking for, and the right button to click, you can find it all on the Facebook homepage.
Even though Facebook does some upgrade features from time to time as it did in May, most of the features still stay the same, and you easily navigate your way through and find what you are looking for with ease.
