I can still remember when I first heard about Facebook.  The Myspace trend was finally dying out because of how convoluted and spam-ridden the site had become. Then there was Facebook…  A couple of my friends were talking about how you needed a college email to join.  Within six months they opened it up to high [...]

Reading through the Top 20 Young Internet Entrepreneurs Under 21, the work of Harrison Gevirtz stands out.  His website, www.CPAShare.com is a blog which shares the 17 year old’s online and offline entrepreneurial experiences.  I was intrigued by a post titled How to make money on Facebook with Local Ads.  Harrison walks through the steps [...]

Don’t lie.  If you have a Facebook page, you’ve done it.  Probably several times.  Maybe even today.  “Facebook stalking” (not to be confused with real stalking) is an important social issue brought forth by the privacy issues which accompany the popular social networking site facebook.com.  Just this morning, during a rather boring class, I watched [...]

I remember the days when news traveled via phone call and parents couldn’t check up on their children via online photo album. But my younger brothers likely don’t. Facebook has become a worldwide networking system, but also a new tool for parents. Thankfully, my parents haven’t joined the world of facebook, but more than one of my friends have gone [...]

As if that wasn’t enough, when I investigate what these pages are they aren’t even completed! I don’t want to have to filter through random pages of companies if they don’t even have the self-worth to completely [...]

Facebook is good, but it is far from great. Here’s why. 1- Privacy I know you can adjust the complicated privacy settings, but I don’t have the time to understand all of that red tape. I want Facebook to work for me and not the other way around. Its too easy to look irresponsible. If Facebook didn’t [...]

I am not an avid Facebook user.  However, in the limited amount of time that I do spend on Facebook, I have recently noticed a small Pharisee-esque hypocrisy that goes on in my mind.  In the four years that I’ve had a Facebook account, I have never posted a status and have actually had a [...]

“Mom, really?” This is often the initial response to a Facebook friend request that is increasingly prevalent.  Women over the age of 55 were the fastest growing Facebook demographic a year ago, with growth of 175.3% in a 120 day period.  This phenomena begs the question, “why do so many mothers want Facebook?”  There are [...]
