Well I don't know what Facebook are doing at the moment but it looks like the facebook is different everytime you log in. This is as a result of Facebook trying to keep up with the current trends in chat and networking.
However it seems that Google are soon to launch a Facebook like site called the Google + Project which will challenge Facebook for the head of the Social Networks.
The new community site is a big threat to Facebook as it features an new type of technology called circles which allow you to add friends and family to your circle.
This means that if you have a group of friends who are close to you, you may not share the same information with them as you would with business colleagues.
The new google + has many cool features like: -
SPARKS
Remember when your Grandpa used to cut articles out of the paper and send them to you? That was nice. That’s kind of what Sparks does: looks for videos and articles it thinks you’ll like, so when you’re free, there’s always something to watch, read, and share. Grandpa would approve.
HANGOUT
Bumping into friends while you’re out and about is one of the best parts of going out and about. With Hangouts, the unplanned meet-up comes to the web for the first time. Let buddies know you’re hanging out and see who drops by for a face-to-face-to-face chat. Until we perfect teleportation, it’s the next best thing.
HUDDLE
Texting is great, but not when you’re trying to get six different people to decide on a movie. Huddle takes care of it by turning all those different conversations into one simple group chat, so everyone gets on the same page long before thumbs get sore.
So to conclude......
Facebook is going to have a real battle on its hangs once Google + takes off. The network is currently in the Beta testing stage but you can register an interest in joining at the Google Plus page. http://www.google.com/+/learnmore/
Take a look and let us know what you think..... Will Google + rival Facebook??????
It seems that Facebook is fast becoming the place for business to advertise.
If your business has not got a Facebook fan page then your falling behind the crowd.
With more and more interest being taken in Facebook by the larger organisations like M&S and smirnoff, Facebook is becoming high on most companies list of must haves.
So why fall behind! Why not design your own Facebook fan page and add a link from your website.
