STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — When it comes to social media, the Staten Island Board of Realtors keeps abreast of the latest updates, along with other frequent online users. That is why, when changes occur on a  popular social media site, we believe it is important to share it with others.

With this is mind, we are pointing to an Entrepreneur magazine article that explains one of the most recent changes to  Facebook:
