5 Reasons Why Facebook Places Won’t Succeed

Perhaps you have heard of Facebook Places.  If not, your one sentence summary is this: Facebook has introduced a new service that will allow users to "check in" to places and share their location with their friends. The majority of speculation from those watching this roll out is that it is going to destroy other location based services like Foursquare, Gowalla, Whrll, Loopt, etc.  I don't think it will, and I'll give you five reason why I think this. First, let's start with one reason, and one reason only,that Facebook Places might succeed: they have a user base of over 500 million.  The sheer volume of that might let it see life into 2011. Now, on to why I think Facebook Places is nothing short of "meh".
  1. A terrible launch. The big announcement came in late yesterday afternoon to much fan fare. Twitter blew up with the announcement, and every social media news outlet ran practically moment-by-moment coverage.  The noise was made, and people noticed.  The immediate reaction was predictable, "I want to try it", shouted the masses.  But there was a big problem...nobody knew how or where to use it! In fact, out of 40,000+ total mentions that I tracked using Row Feeder, practically none of them actually talked about using the product; they only talked about the announcement and how/if this would affect Foursquare.

  2. Confusing Application Update. The official Facebook blog simply told us that it would be working in "the most recent version" of the Facebook iPhone app.  According to my phone and the iTunes store on it, I did have the most recent version, but I still didn't have "Places" anywhere on it. Once I finally did get the correct version today (which only described "bug fixes" as the update), I clicked the Places button as was met with a message that "this feature will be available in your region soon". Just so you know, my "region" is Los Angeles.  Perhaps you've heard of it, Facebook? I heard reports from San Francisco and other major metropolitan areas that it wasn't available there either. Where did they launch it exactly...Duluth? [caption id="attachment_1881" align="alignleft" width="200" caption="Facebook Places Was Not Available In Many Major Cities at Launch"]Facebook Places Was Not Available In Many Major Cities at Launch[/caption]
  3. Too Many Privacy Concerns. Let's face it...Facebook has an issue with privacy, or at least the perception of privacy.  When Open Graph was announced, everybody clamored to try and figure out how to opt out.  Now that Places is here, most of the articles I'm seeing talked about are "how to" guides for shutting down Places and its sharing abilities.  Facebook started off as a private network that has become increasingly public.  Bottom line, I don't think people on Facebook really want to share where they are all of the time.
  4. [caption id="attachment_1888" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Even on a Facebook Wall the Foursquare Check In is More Exciting than the Facebook Places Check In"][/caption] What's In It For Me? Nothing. I had access to Facebook Places for less than 10 minutes before I came to the conclusion that it's boring.  And by boring I mean...why in the world would I want to use it? One thing that keeps me checking in to Foursquare everywhere I go is the competition and the rewards.  When I check into a local watering hole and somebody else is the Mayor...well, I don't like it.  It makes me want to come back more and oust them. Childish? Yes.  Effective? Also yes.  With Foursquare I also get badges for achievements.  I unlocked the "Zoetrope" badge over the weekend when I took my kids to a movie over the weekend, and it made me happy! Facebook Places appears to give me...nothing.  Am I supposed to be excited that I can share info with my friends? I have news for you, Facebook; I can already to that 100 different ways.  What really surprised me was how benign the service looks when I check in.  Look at the comparison on my wall that compares a Facebook Places check in to a Foursquare check in. +1 Foursquare
  5. Too hard to "claim" a business. Sure, we have to keep squatters away, and having accurate business verification is important, but the process they are asking for is ridiculous. After you cerifity that you are an official representative of the business (reasonable) you are directed to a page where you are asked to fill out address, number, etc. and then upload official legal documentation like Article of Incorporation or a Local Business License (not reasonable).  How many people are really going to do this? I see conversations going something like this:
Worker: Hey CEO, we really should claim our location on Facebook Places CEO: WTF is Facebook Places? Worker: A way for users of Facebook to check in and share their location with their friends. Can I borrow the Articles of Incorporation to upload to Facebook? CEO: *blank stare*
All of this to say, I don't think Facebook Places will take off.  I know that everybody is predicting the end of Foursquare and other services, but as I recall from the battle of David and Goliath...David won.  Just because Facebook has a massive user base, it doesn't mean that everything they do will result in them taking over the market.  Remember when Facebook changed it's status updates and bought FriendFeed? It was deemed "The Twitter Killer".  Guess what? Twitter is still around. My bottom line? Facebook Places was a fun product announcement to get excited about, but now it's time to get back to reality. I'm going to start by checking in to my favorite local Alehouse on Foursquare.

Why Do Consumers Like Brands on Facebook?

[caption id="attachment_1857" align="alignright" width="300" caption="Why do people "like" brands on Facebook? Free stuff!"][/caption] According to a recent post by the Google Retail Advertising blog, the answer to the question is simple...they want discounts. In a very short post, they state that their latest research reveals that only 50% of Facebook users "friend" brands, with the prevalent "why" being to receive discounts and promotions.  That's really not surprising, I've seen time and time again huge amounts of traffic being driven to a Facebook brand page by offering something as simple as a coupon for a free bagel. Maybe we don't clip coupons out of the newspaper anymore (remember newspapers?), but some things never change, and consumers continue to be primarily motivated by discounts. For those brands that think all of their fans just cannot wait for breaking news, this report appears to put a dark cloud over that theory.  It seems that a mere 8% are there to hear new info first. The stats presented don't surprise me, but what does surprise me in the lack of data to back up these claims.  How big is the sampling pool? Over what time period was this data collected? What about the fact that Google and Facebook are competitors in so many ways...how does this play in to the conclusions, if at all? Given the stature of Google, this is news that seems worthy of reporting, I'm just disappointed that they didn't qualify their conclusions with some hardcore numbers.  However, I don't need numbers to tell me what I already know: people like free things, or at least discounted things, and are willing to do a few things to receive them, such as "liking" you on Facebook.  If you manage a brand page, don't discount the simple and strong allure of "free" to build your base.

Soma For Sale

Soma For Sale, In a move that I hope is a signal that good things are ahead for Facebook page admins, Facebook has made a very subtle change to the way wall comments can be managed.

Facebook changes report to flagSpam is an ever-increasing problem on Facebook, virtual soma cube, Flexeril vs soma, particularly on Fan Pages with huge followings (I know, they're not "fans" anymore, soma currency, Aura soma heart rescue, but everybody still calls them that).  As a page administrator, order cheap overnight soma, Whole foods soma san francisco, our two options to this point have been to delete the message completely, or more to my liking, buy worldwide soma, Cheap soma no prescription next day delivery, reporting the spammer/offender by clicking "report" and then briefly describing the problem.  This would send a report to Facebook, soma new york, Soma watson cheap mastercard, and we had the option to request the offender be banded from the page.  I usually picked this as the vermin were rarely first timers, soma body cells.

Today, when I took a glance over the pages we manage, I noticed that "report" was gone, replaced with "flag", Soma For Sale. Super cheap soma carisprodol,  Naturally I had a lot of spammers on the page I was looking at, so I clicked "flag", soma appliance, Somas motel, but was disappointed that I received an error message each time, telling me the action couldn't be performed, soma intimates discount codes. Soma insomnia,  I ended up just deleting the posts.

This very small change gives me great hope that Facebook may be making the pages more admin-friendly, probation drug testing soma. Akane soma japanese model,  I can only speculate on what is being rolled out, but I'm hoping for big things, soma buy cod.  On my wish list:


  • Granular levels of control to manage spammers

  • The ability to administrate a page without using my personal account (I like to try to keep work and personal life separate)

  • Soma For Sale, A one-click look at the history of a user that writes on the wall. Soma puzzle solver,  How many times have they interacted. What have they previously said, movement from soma to axon. Soma phamaceutical info, This will help me to understand if a more severe action like page-banning is appropriate


Hopefully the mystery of report-to-like will be solved soon.  Are there any admin-side controls you would like to see put into place, soma no prescrition. Soma area rug. Fun with somas.

Soma Over The Counter

Facebook Controls Internet with Open Graph Protocol All Your Base Are Belong To UsSince their announcements at F8 Soma Over The Counter, about Open Graph Protocol (OGP), I've been following Facebook far more closely that I normally do.  Why. Greenwheel soma holiday, From the moment I watched the videos about what OGP does, I knew that the way the internet works will be changed forever.  Today I saw something that confirms that Facebook now controls the internet. No, soma buy cod, I'm not saying that to be sensational or dramatic, Soma no prescription next day delivery, I believe it to be true...a shift has occurred with OGP that will forever change how brands and consumers interact, and Facebook owns it all.  How do I know, soma physical therapy mesa az. Because long time rival Google is already embracing Facebook's new protocol.

More about that in a moment, Soma Over The Counter. But first, B soma b b drug b, if you are not familiar with what Facebook has done, let me give you a very brief overview.

What Does Open Graph Do?


Websites can now be uniquely dynamic, soma therapy avacado oil, not globally static.  In other words, Juka soma bio, each visitor to a site will experience it in a way that no other visitor ever will.

For example, when a visitor goes to a website and logs in using Facebook, soma snake oil porn star, they will see which of their friends “like” the site, Soma neuromuscular integration chad seattle, a single page or even an individual product. In addition to the “like” feature, any site can customize the user experience by displaying personally relevant information like upcoming birthdays, soma tattoo removal, events or hobbies of their friends. Soma Over The Counter, In all, there are sixteen categories of personal information that can be shared on the site, creating an experience that is unique for each visitor. Desert resorts school of soma therapy, As a brand marketer that focuses on social media optimization (here is a list of companies that I currently or recently have worked for), I'm incredibly excited about how this changes the scope of how we can interact and engage with consumers.  It's a brave new world, best price generic soma buy online.

Proof That Facebook Now Controls The Internet


Given what websites are now able to create unique and very personal experiences on their sites, Soma comma, it's no surprise that many are clamoring to understand and incorporate Open Graph Protocol into their online communities. I wouldn't think that every company would be anxious to use OGP, however; companies that view Facebook as competition in any way are no doubt less-than-thrilled with this announcement, eths soma.  One such company is Google, Soma Over The Counter.

Google owned YouTube embraces Facebook Open Graph ProtocolIt's no secret that there is more than a little competition between Google and Facebook. Soma street price,  This Wired piece from February 2010 says it well, "this time it's personal".  It's not a new rivalry, soma 180 fedex, there are many articles going back several years that describe a similar cut-throat mentality of competition. Delivery saturday soma,  Given this, I'm truly surprised that even Google has started to incorporate Facebook's Open Graph Protocol into some of their sites. Soma Over The Counter,  Today, I discovered that YouTube, a company that is Google owned, is using OGP is a very creative way.

My friend and social media pro Josh Groth put up a link to a video on his Facebook page today, coupon code soma.  I thought it sounded interesting, Soma center lake worth, so I clicked the link that brought me directly to the YouTube page and started watching (the quite excellent) ukulele rendition of MGMT's Kids.  That's not the amazing part...what I was shocked to see was the prompt just below the video encouraging me to log into YouTube with my Facebook account. Facebook Connect for YouTube isn't new, soma san francisco, it was implemented last year.  However, this move appears to cement into place the premise that YouTube (and therefore Google) needs Facebook, Soma Over The Counter. Soma 350 mg paypal, Although I didn't log in, it's a brilliant move by YouTube, and I'm sure many companies will follow, soma purchase online.  If I had permitted the application to log me in via Facebook, Soma lofts in omaha, I would have given YouTube full permission to contact me anytime via email, and to pull my personal information (and that of my friends) from Facebook whenever they wanted to, day or night, soma cod without prescription. I would be giving them the keys to the kingdom, Ordering somas, so to speak.

YouTube Now Using Facebook Open Graph to Connect UsersI asked somebody to log into the same video, first by directly visiting the URL in their browser without going through Facebook. Soma Over The Counter,  The result. There was not a prompt to log in with Facebook.  Next, they clicked through the link for the same video (same URL) that I had posted on my wall in Facebook.  This time the prompt for them to sign in via Facebook was there. Want to see for yourself? Click the link here to go directly to the YouTube video page, then click the link here to go to my Facebook social media page so you can click through to the same video, but from Facebook. Do you see what I see, Soma Over The Counter. The prompt to log in only displays (for now) for the traffic that comes directly from Facebook.

This means that YouTube is using referral data (how you get to there site, where you are coming from) to determine if you will see the prompt for Facebook connect.  It stands to reason that if you are going to YouTube directly from Facebook, you will be more likely to log in using the Facebook method...which of course increases the amount of information that YouTube can gather, store and use about you.  All in all, it's very clean and smart marketing.

What This Means


As much as I can appreciate the fact that YouTube is really embracing Facebook's Open Graph Protocol, it's hard for me to look past that fact that it is really Google using it.  In my mind, Google's continuing embrace and use of technology that clearly incorporates and benefits Facebook is quite telling: Facebook has rolled out something that is so beneficial to every brand and company that has a web presence, Facebook now controls the internet.

Checkmate. Well played, Facebook.

Soma Buy

UPDATED: SEE NEW STEPS IN HOW-TO (BELOW)

It's only been a day since Facebook announced sweeping changes Soma Buy, to their platform at their F8 conference, but already the implications are being seen around the web.  Check out what Levi's is doing on their site...very cool stuff.  Essentially, they are personalizing each web page you visit based upon your Facebook friends and their preferences.  As I've pondered and discussed what this means to marketing, to brand and to consumers, one question comes up again and again...what if I don't want to participate?

It's a fair question.  As it stands right now, if you do connect to a web site that is using the new Facebook Open Graph Protocol you are sharing a lot of information by default, including your activities & interests, your birthday, photos you've been tagged in, even your family and relationship status. Soma by mail, This can present a fair amount of concern for many people when it comes to their privacy, especially since the 24 hour caching requirement has been removed, online cheap soma, Drugtesting soma, effectively getting Facebook out of the way of the relationship between developers and their users.  In other words, your information can be stored and used in ways that are only limited by the mind of the designer and developer of a site.

  1. Log into your Facebook account and go to the privacy settings, is soma a controlled substance, Soma online, which are under Account-->Privacy Settings-->Applications and Websites (you can find this in the top right corner).

  2. At the bottom of the page is an area called "Instant Personalization".  Uncheck the box that says "Allow" UPDATE: The checkbox is no longer on this level.  Instead, argent soma mp3, Order watson soma online, you now need to click "Edit Setting", which will take you to another page, soma sengupta. Is soma controlled substance canada,  If you wish to opt out, uncheck the box at the bottom of this page, theresa soma kensington md, Liver damage from soma, it will say "Allow select partners to instantly personalize their features with my public information when I first arrive on their websites"

  3. Also on that page Click back one page to Privacy Settings-->Applications and you will see a section called "What Your Friends Share About You". Click "Edit Settings".  Once inside, uncheck every box you see, all 16 of them, Soma Buy. Yes, soma water bed sheets, Anake soma, sixteen. Don't forget to click "Save Changes" at the bottom.

  4. While you're at it, buy carisoprodol soma, Cheap soma online, go to Account-->Privacy Settings--> Profile Information and make sure that everything is set to "Only Friends".  Anything that you have set to "Everyone" is open to be viewed by those outside of your immediate network of friends.

Zithromax Pharmacy No Prescription

Zithromax Pharmacy No Prescription, Yesterday, Facebook's F8 conference created quite a wave of buzz when they announced the release of the Open Graph API. Zithromax by mail, Personally, I'm very excited about this from a marketing point of view, zithromax rss feed. Cephalexin zithromax, But, there was another announcement that was just as exciting to me that didn't get nearly the same coverage as Open Graph: Facebook and Microsoft have become unlikely bedfellows, 3 day pack zithromax, Zithromax sale, rolling out the new Docs.com site.

The short version: a personalized document sharing site that lets you create, diflucan zithromax, Zithromax prescription drug, upload and share Office files with your Facebook friends. I haven't seen a more obvious shot across the bow of Google Docs, zithromax for pets, Zithromax tripack, and I think this site will only pick up speed as more people discover it.

The site is slick and simple, with headers that will let you see your docs, your friends docs, or add a new doc, Zithromax Pharmacy No Prescription. The "Add a Doc" section offers to ways to share: either you can upload an existing document from your computer, zithromax z-pac, Zithromax injection no prescription, or you can create a new document using the online version of Word, Excel or PowerPoint, zithromax 250mg tabs z-pak price. Zithromax for sinusitis, It's interesting to see how the new Facebook Open Graph works in all of this...there on the right side are pictures of your friends that are already on Docs. It ads the very personal feel that Facebook is trying to push throughout the web, fetal zithromax. Zithromax generic name, You can visit the site and download existing homepage docs, but unfortunately full participation is still limited to beta users that have received an invite code, zithromax opinion. Zithromax Pharmacy No Prescription, That means that until you are in the beta test group, you cannot actually upload anything...too bad. Zithromax feline, I should also mention that I tried this site in four browsers: Internet Explorer, Firefox, z pack zithromax, Canada zithromax, Safari and Chrome. It worked great in all of them except Chrome initially; I got a compatibility error in the Google-born browser, zithromax masturbation. Where is zithromax from, Interestingly, since I first tried (and failed) to do this in Chrome a couple of hours ago, z max zithromax, Zithromax tums interaction, things have changed...it now works. So much for my original theory that they were trying to completely lock out all Google products compatibility, zithromax strep throat.

Give Docs.com a look and sign up for the Beta so we can all collaborate when it rolls out completely, Zithromax Pharmacy No Prescription. Zithromax medicine, Docs is also on Twitter, and naturally they have a Facebook page. If you want more information straight from the source, check out their blog or FAQs.

I would love to hear what you think of this service...should Google be worried?

Cheap Zithromax Online

Facebook announced at F8 They Will Roll Out More Robust Insights and AnalyticsI'm not at the F8 conference Cheap Zithromax Online, today, but I have been reading the news and keeping up with the announcements. Zithromax with overnight shipping,  So far, the most exciting stories I have read have to do with Facebook Insights, zithromax 500mg tablets, Zithromax for dental surgery, the dashboard for page admins. If you run a fan page (now called a "like" page, zithromax staph sensitivity, Chlamydia zithromax, I suppose) for a brand, agency or just for yourself, zithromax allergies, Buy generic zithromax, this is important information.

To date, buy zithromax no prescription, Chlamydia zithromax cost, the Insights have been underwhelming.  They have covered only the most basic information, ciprofloxacin zithromax, Symptoms of zithromax iv infiltration, and as somebody who works with big brands to engage and guide the community, I've got to say they have been less than helpful, zithromax syphillis.  It seems that all of that changes today, however, Cheap Zithromax Online. Zithromax powder price,  Facebook has announced "Facebook for Web Sites" and have already published full documentation about it.  The insight to user behavior should be interesting, sinusitis zithromax, Zithromax z-pack refill when to start, as Facebook says:

"Once your app is up-and-running, you can get detailed analytics about the demographics of your users and how users are sharing from your application with Insights, zithromax 100 mg ivt. Drugs related to zithromax,

Insights supports analytics broken down by application and by domain. The product includes rich data about users sharing content from your site within Facebook no matter where those shares originated, azithromycin azythromycin zithromax. Cheap Zithromax Online, For example, if a user puts a URL from your site in their Facebook status message, that data is included in the analytics for your domain.

The data from Insights is also included in the Graph API so you can integrate the Facebook analytics data with your own, in-house analytics systems."


You can read some good commentaries over at Read Write Web and All Facebook. Zithromax urinary, I'm not a developer, so it's a bit early for me to really speculate on the implications of all of this, phizer zithromax sd. Zithromax niacin,  I am a marketer, and the implications for this are exciting, antibiotic zithromax. Zithromax norvasc interaction,  Having access to more granular user data (for example, being able to see what happens to a wall post after it is shared) is exciting and helpful, is zithromax ok for sinus infection. Buy zithromax online worldwide,  It will allow me to do my job far more effectively, and will help me to predict future user behavior more easily, as opposed to just looking backward at what they have done.  Privacy groups are already crying foul (which is no surprise, the tiniest change in Facebook evokes this reaction), so we'll see how it all plays out, Cheap Zithromax Online.

I think this is the first of many steps that Facebook will take to solidify itself as the premier destination, not just for users, but also for brands.

If you want to watch the video of F8, you can do so on the Facebook page. So what do you think...is this a step in the right direction, or a slippery slope toward invasion of privacy.

Yes, zithromax liver disease. Liking a Page means you are connecting to that Page. When you connect to a Page, it will appear in your profile and you will appear on the Page as a person who likes that Page. The Page will also be able to post content into your News Feed. On the other hand, when you click "Like" on a piece of content that a friend posts, you are simply letting your friend know that you like it without leaving a comment. http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=17168

UPDATE: It seems that Facebook can't decide if they are going to roll this out right now or not.  About 15 minutes after I wrote up the article, everything changed back from "Like" to "Become A Fan".

Purchase Zithromax

Mediagazer media aggregator siteI'm been looking over a new media aggregation site called Mediagazer Purchase Zithromax, . Zithromax cure sifilis,  My initial thought was, "great...another aggregator that will simply clutter up a lot of content and put it in a needle-in-the-haystack format", zithromax for a sinus infection, Zithromax hiatal hernia, but those thoughts were dismissed as soon as I really started looking at it closely.

Mediagazer is a new effort from the uber-popular tech sharing community Techmeme, purchase pfizer zithromax 250mg tablets, Zithromax online, and is their first news vertical in almost four years. It bills itself as a site, zithromax packs, Symptoms of zithromax iv infiltration, "which will focus on the content production and distribution business, organizing topics as wide as journalism, feo zithromax, Zithromax no prescription, blogging, video production, zithromax for stomach, Purpose of zithromax, e-books, and digital distribution technologies", discount zithromax, Directions for taking zithromax, and sure enough it does all of that.  There are a lot of good content assimilation sites, us zithromax free perscription, Zithromax 2008 warnings, but I think Mediagazer will stand out as a leader if it can get enough good press early to build momentum.

Mediagazer allows you to share with Twitter or Facebook easilyI really like it's easy-to-share buttons, with the ability to send information linked to either Mediagazer directly, or the original source of the story, Purchase Zithromax.  I think that is a brave and noble feature, zithromax mexico, Zithromax no perscription, most aggregators are trying their very best to drive as much traffic as possible directly to their own site (increase in traffic = increase in ad revenue), so the ability to link directly out is a fairly cool and risky idea, ingredients of zithromax. Zithromax for dental abscess, They do have sponsored news aggregation prominently displayed in the right column and halfway down the main page with no signs of traditional banner and display ads...yet. I also like the sharing simplicity, zithromax rash, Drugs related to zithromax, obviously aimed at social networks as the only two options are Twitter and Facebook.  Honestly, zithromax active ingredient, Cheap zithromax without script, those are the only two places I ever share news anyway. Naturally, us zithromax mastercard, Written zithromax perscription for children, Mediagazer is also on Twitter, although thus far it appears to simply be a feed from their headlines as opposed to an interactive, engaging account.

I like the navigation and sharing potential from this site, so I'll give it a try as a news source for a couple of weeks to see if it makes it into my regular lineup.  If you try it out, let me know what you think: is Mediagazer just another news aggregator, or a useful service for finding and sharing information.

Nexium Buy

When Is Public Info TOO Public? Nexium Buy, I've been thinking about the ever-increasing blurry line between public and private lives now that social media is mainstream.  I've personally been opening myself up to the world for about a decade; I started blogging by developing my own (very basic) blogging platform before the term "blog" was popular...and I haven't looked back since then, nexium discounts. Less expensive alternatives to nexium, There have been a couple of times that I was alarmed by what people are capable of thinking or doing.  A few years ago I started getting anonymous comments on various videos of my children, discounted nexium pills, Nexium help perscriptions, asking me to pose them in certain ways or have them do certain things.  Naturally I deleted all traces of the videos online (yes it is possible) and became very aware of what I was posting after that, nexium tv spot.  Although I was always careful to never name them or reveal the location of my children even before this incident, I became very protective after that and have been quite conscious of what I would and would not publish, Nexium Buy. Free prescriptions nexium,  Over the years I have become more widely known because of my marketing and social media work, and although I'm certainly a small fish in a big pond, discounts on nexium, Zyrtec pravachol nexium zovirax, I do have a lot of connections with people that I've never met face to face.

Don't get me wrong, prilosec nexium better gerd, Nexium gastric reflux long term, I wouldn't trade my social media life.  I've turned so many of my digital-first relationships into real-life relationships, direction nexium, Pravachol nexium actos zestril, and I love social media and the way it connects the world. But, nexium pricce, Taking asprin with nexium, and there is always a but...

Nexium Buy, I'm closing up my personal Facebook profile, restricting it to only people I know in real life.

I was going to post this earlier in the week, but as I was proofing the draft, I skipped over to my blog reader and was quite surprised to see that one of the greats in social media, Darren Rowse the ProBlogger, announced pretty much the same thing.  It's an excellent article, where to buy nexium using paypal, Will nexium help choking, you can read it here, but it left me thinking that this was the right move for me, nexium substitues. Nexium xr,  Darren has a much larger audience than I do (and he deserves it!), so pointing people over to his Facebook Fan Page yielded some pretty good results, nexium benefits. Is nexium a histamine blocker,  The very next day on Twitter I saw that my friend Jessica Gottlieb was doing the same thing...purging Facebook.

Honestly, nexium by vbulletin, Nexium powered by phpbb, the announcement of my personal Facebook page going private isn't big news.  I'm writing this because I am looking at this as perhaps more of a renewing of the line between public and private lives globally, Nexium Buy.  The pendulum tends to swing in trends...we went from very private (no internet access) to very public (ChatRoulette) and I think we're going to start seeing a swing back to the private, long term aide affects of nexium. Nexium protein digestion,  It's not going to go back to total segregation however...I see a hybrid emerging, especially for social media professionals, nexium united states.

I'm closing up my Facebook profile and unfriending people that I don't personally know...but honestly encouraging them to join me on my fan page.  And yes, I hate the term fan page...who am I that somebody would become a fan. Nexium Buy, I wish it were worded differently.  But it's not, so that is what I will develop over time.  I had a conversation with somebody about this today, and they initially said something along the lines of "nice knowing you", meaning that our digital connection was being cut.  On the contrary, I replied...I really think I'll be engaging people a lot more with this move. My current Facebook status is automatically updated from my Twitter feed, so it's actually not all that personal to begin with.  Twitter is still probably the best way to connect with me, but I'm not going to send it over to Facebook anymore; not to my personal or my public page, Nexium Buy.  We'll see how it goes.

Hopefully now the separation of worlds will make more sense.  When my Aunt writes on my wall and asks how my mom is, half of my friends won't wonder what she's talking about.  When an online friend starts talking to me about HTML5 vs. Nexium Buy, Flash, half of my friends won't wonder what he's talking about.  And out of all of it, I think I can start putting up pictures of my children, and my friends from high school can comment on what good looking kids they are....because they really are good looking kids.

Thanks for understanding. I would love it if you would join me on my public Facebook page (I'm going to be careful to not call it a fan page), and if you have been thinking about this separation of public and private lives, I would love to hear about it in the comments or on Twitter. Or even on my new f** page.  ;)
