Alison Doyle, About.com Guide to Job Searching, Jobsearch.about.com, alisondoyle.com...
"Jason Alba’s book on LinkedIn (I’m on LinkedIn---Now What???) is an excellent resource for anyone (and that should be everyone) using LinkedIn to network. This time around, Jason, with co-author, Jesse Stay have done the same for Facebook users. It’s true that Facebook is no longer just for kids, and every professional should be using it, at least for branding and communicating. This book will show you how you can get the most out of it and it’s another terrific resource."

"'I'm on Facebook--Now What???' is the definitive guide to optimizing your Facebook results on both a personal and professional level. Savvy authors, Jason and Jesse packed everything you need to know from A-Z into this quick and easy read. Whether you’re just getting started, or you want to build an application, or you want to build your business, you need to pick up a copy of this book!"

"I enjoyed every word of the book. Jason and Jesse took me on a journey to one of the hottest online spots in the world. They provided me with insight, a lot of answers and even some new ideas. Everthing you need to know about Facebook is there, and then some... I highly recommend that you grab a copy and that you read it today."
"Jason and Jesse hit a home run here. I've been on Facebook for a long time but many of my family and business associates are just signing on now. Every week I get emails and calls asking me what to do with "this Facebook thing" and half the time I don't even have an answer. Jason and Jesse have an answer and I'll fwd people to this book to hopefully save myself 3 hours a week in Facebook tutoring!"
About the Author
Jason Alba is the career management evangelist. After getting laid off in January 2006, having great credentials and in a job-seeker's market, Jason could hardly get a job interview. He decided to step back and figure out the job search process and understand all of the available resources. Within a few months he designed JibberJobber.com, which helps professionals manage career and job search activities the same way a salesman manages prospects and customer data. Read Jason's award-winning blog at http://www.JibberJobber.com/blog, and his first book, "I'm on LinkedIn -- Now What???"
