NAR Social Media Guru Serves Up Another Brewhaha on Twitter : http://activerain.com/blogsview/1805755/nar-social-media-guru-serves-up-another-brewhaha-on-twitter

“There's another firestorm brewing in the hallowed halls of the National Assn. of REALTORS. NAR social media director Todd Carpenter ignited another Twitter brawl following some late night meandering on the social net…

The following exchange between Carpenter and a Realtor in Dayton, Ohio, was most likely a friendly joke.”

Facebook is another place to meet people and connect. For free.

Building A Legitimately Large Audience – and Determine Your Audience

The only way to build a large and legitimate audience is to develop ideas that spread organically. As you’ve perfected the art of developing powerful and compelling ideas, you expand your audience potential. At that point Facebook can be used as a tool to reach a larger portion of your total audience potential in a quick period of time. So don’t make this mistake: do not overestimate your total audience potential. If you have a flower shop in Charlotte, North Carolina, your maximum audience potential is the total number of people in Charlotte who purchase flowers. Even once you’ve determined your audience potential, take the time to perfect your message.

Facebook Says SoAccording to Facebook's terms of service, "Profiles represent individuals and must be held under an individual name, while Pages allow an organization, business, celebrity, or band to maintain a professional presence on Facebook." If your business' profile gets shut down by Facebook for violating this rule, your friends list will vanish with it.
