Huge Facebook News, Exclusive Video with Randi
Zuckerberg, & More Facebook News to Come Tomorrow
Every month we seem to report on Facebook news in this newsletter,
mostly because there's so much relevant news about this extraordinary company.
Last week, Facebook's Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg made 2 huge announcements:
Facebook now has over 300 million users worldwide, and, despite reporting earlier
that they expected to be cash-flow positive sometime in 2010, the company is
now cash-flow positive already. They also introduced Facebook Lite two weeks
ago for users who want a simpler version of the site, and last week introduced
Status Tagging, which allows users to "tag" their friends, Groups, and Fan
Pages in updates using the @ symbol. We @theKbuzz believe this addition may
significantly affect organic virality of Fan Pages for brands, companies and
non-profits. Our CEO Dave Kerpen recently sat down with Facebook's Randi
Zuckerberg to discuss Status Tagging in the exclusive video found here.
Facebook's innovation never seems to slow down though, and their
Chief Operating Officer Sheryl Sandberg is expected to make another
announcement tomorrow at Advertising Week in New York. Don't worry, we'll be
there to report on and analyze the announcement for you.
Advertising Week Goes Social
This week is
Advertising Week in New York, as thousands of agencies, brands, and marketers
are converging to discuss the latest trends, case studies and topics in
advertising. Not surprisingly, social media has its strongest presence ever in
this year's Advertising Week events, as more and more companies and people
realize the incredible value of engagement and 2-way interactivity that social
media marketing provides. We'll be at a lot of the events, sharing key
insights, so please make sure, if you can't be there yourself, that you're
following us on Twitter and Facebook, which is almost as good as
being there.
The
ROI of Social Media: A Presentation
Consultant
Oliver Blanchard has put together the best presentation we've ever seen on the
ROI of Social Media! Many people, including us, have talked for years about why
and how social media marketing provides a great return of investment over time
for organizations - but Blanchard's synthesis of ideas, graphics, charts and
thought bubbles provide a compelling and entertaining argument that is
impossible to ignore. Ready to convince your boss - or yourself? Check out the
full presentation on Slideshare here.
