Use of the @mentions feature is definitely not limited to thanking someone. It can be used for many purposes to let someone know you?re talking about (or to) them. Excellent point, Anastasia!

And, yeah, the cat - I had recorded several minutes before this happened. I was trying to nudge her out of view with my elbow, but you can see she had other plans.

I've been using @ mentions to pull people into joint wall posts, but never as a way to thank the originator of something I shared. I haven't been using FB professionally nor are the people I tend to be connected with so it didn't occur to me to use the @ mention as a way to publicly thank them and bring attention to their profile. None the less, it is good etiquette so instead of just mentioning them, I'll use the @ mention. Hey Irene,

Facebook @mentions are the proper way to credit my excellent facebook friends whenever I re-share a link or video. By the way, your earlier attempt was hilarious!
