Facebook is a great way to communicate and interact with friends and relatives that are members of the social networking site. When you post new photos or videos to your Facebook account, most of your Facebook friends receive a notification and may view them within minutes of the upload. If you want to send Facebook photos to acquaintances, friends or relatives who are not members of the site, though, you have to result to an older technique — email. Emailing your Facebook photos requires a few more steps. Nevertheless, it is not difficult and takes only a couple of minutes.
