Did you ever want to read a link that a friend shared on Facebook, but didn't have the time at that particular moment?

If there's anything you want to save for later, click the ellipsis menu () in the top-right of any post. Then click the Save Post/Link/Video from the pull-down; the same method works on mobile versions of Facebook. This will send the link to your Saved folder. "Where's your Saved folder," you ask? Good question! You actually won't see it until you save something for the first time. Then a little red "Saved" ribbon appears in your left-hand favorites bar. Click that to find all your favorite stored stories. Saved Posts don't expire but might disappear if the original poster deletes it.

Want to know if someone is logged into your Facebook account without your permission? First, go to your Settings page. Under the Security and Login folder, you'll see "Where You're Logged In." Here you will find all your active Facebook log-ins from desktop or mobile devices. It will (usually) provide data on the location, browser, and device. If something seems fishy, you have the ability to log out from individual devices (click the menu > Log Out) or all devices at once (scroll down and click "Log out All Sessions.") This comes in handy if you log in to a friend's computer or on some public laptop, but forget to log out.

The Inbox You Didn't Even Know You Had

If you've been a Facebook user for a while, then you probably have a folder full of unread messages that you didn't even know you had: the "Message Requests" folder (formerly, the "Other" folder.) This is where Facebook sends all the messages from people you're not currently friends with. It could be filled with old high school flings reaching out or a bunch of Nigerian spammers, who knows?! Only one way to find out!

To review these messages, click the "messages" icon at the top of your home screen (a chat icon with the Messenger lightning icon in the middle). By default, you'll find yourself in the "Recent" tab of your inbox. Directly to the right, you'll find the "Message Requests" tab. After you click this, you may see a link that says "See filtered requests." Click that and then you'll see all sorts of messages from strangers on the internet. Have fun with that!

Yikes!

My mom loves me. But she also “likes” me—a lot. And apparently, when she does so on Facebook, it’s hurting my chances of becoming the next viral sensation.
