Facebook Messages – The New Email?
Posted by: | CommentsFacebook has become a very popular way for people to interact with one another on the Internet. In fact, Facebook has in many ways replaced some of the traditional means of Internet communication.

Using Social Platform Apps to Share Content on Your Facebook Page

Posted by: | Comments
I have been bombarded by Stik.com wall posts. I find this application annoying because I would not recommend anyone unless I know them personally and if that is the case, contact me directly and I’m happy to oblige. I’m pretty picky, I don’t like any application posted from others on my wall. However, I do love just regular wall posts from friends and family, so I don’t want to restrict my wall privacy settings. If you have any involvement with this application and would like to get rid of it, here is how:

Facebook Frustrations
Posted by: | CommentsI was reminded today that Facebook is always evolving. Just today, I discovered that the create new DOC feature of Groups was removed from the wall status. It has been moved to the sidebar on the right under Create a Doc. I think this is a much better location, however, there was some frustration I experienced when I couldn’t find it right away. I keep myself up on latest updates too!
How to Use Facebook as a Page
Posted by: | CommentsOne major change has been made in the new Facebook format. You now have the option to “Use Facebook As Page”. What this means is you can log in as your page rather than as your personal profile. This opens up a whole new world. You can now post as a Page instead of only as a Profile.

Why Facebook is Good for your Health
Posted by: | CommentsI agree now. It took me a while to warm up to Facebook. This article really sunk in for me as I’m a techo-geek with limited social skills. 
Here’s a quote from the Health.com article:
So, I like to think of Facebook as a high-tech way to replace low-tech social interactions, which in previous generations, I might have achieved with each trip to the grocery store or bank. I don’t see it as wasting hours of time online; I’m visiting a digital Bedford Falls, if you will, my online Walton’s Mountain.

Facebook Pages Q&A
Posted by: | CommentsFAQ Questions for Facebook
I received a couple of questions about my Facebook Page Article that I sent out to my Marketing & Technology Newsletter subscribers.
Q: Debbie- I read the info on the SU site following leadership and now I am worried I may be in violation on facebook. I created a profile page many months ago and have been using it to post my classes and what’s going on with SU. It sounds like I need to change to a business page, but if I understand this correctly I will no longer be able to invite my friends to the classes- is this correct?

I think they did a wonderful job at highlighting and answering a few questions that we all ask about how to promote our Stampin’ Up! business.
