I think the Twitter name should be your real name or the name of your business. That's how people will know who you are and remember you. Like your website name ColinAlsheimer would be a nice name!

Colin -- it's worth noting that photos shared from Pages aren't large. Friends' shared photos are larger, but not brands'.

One, you may unlike pages; or two, you may hide pages if you want to maintain connection but reduce their distribution from reaching you, especially those pages that post often.

or you could pay for ads. In the end, FB is here to profit, and since their customers (the real ones) are paying them for our eyeballs, it doesn't do to have a brand not paying for ads get more exposure than a company paying for ad space.

Same here on the first point, David. I think this will make *timing* of posts even more important than before.

How much of "Top Stories" and "Recent Stories" you'll see depends how often you log into Facebook, and how long you stay logged in. If you're a power user and in your News Feed for long periods of time, you'll see far more "Recent Stories" updates, and less of the algorithmically delivered content.

David - thanks for dropping by! I see your point - heavy or savvy Facebook users probably will find themselves spending more time in the recent news section. I'm hesitant to say the same applies for the average Facebook user though.

As for this change leading to a decrease in likes / fans as more users work to filter their content? Interesting theory - don't disagree. It will be interesting to see how it all plays out!

Re: Life Just Got a Whole Lot Harder for Brands on Facebook

David Malmborg — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 13:44:25 -0000

I disagree. I think that I'll be spending more time in "Recent News" more then I have in the past year or so (whenever newsfeed was introduced). Already in recent news, I've seen more "Page" content then ever before because it was in my recent news. Ultimately what will happen is people will see the pages the follow more often, I think you'll actually see a decline in "Fans" or "Likes" to a brand's page as people start to unsubscribe pages they don't really care about.

For brands this will leave a more accurate "Like" count. Overall I think the change will be beneficial for brands.

Congratulations on having one of probably the most innovative blogs Ive come across in some time! Its just incredible just how much you can take away from something simply because of how visually beautiful it is. Youve put together an excellent blog space -great graphics, videos, layout. This is certainly a must-see weblog!

2. Use fresh herbs
As when choosing plants for other applications, it's crucial that the herbs are as fresh as possible. This will maximize the fullness of the herbs' aromas. To ensure the freshness of the herbs, you could consider growing them yourself. However, if you don't live in an ideal environment for growing certain herbs, then you'll have to buy your herbs from a supplier. If you need to do that, then verify that the herbs supplied are as fresh as possible.

Hi Colin. I stalled at step 1.
Maybe Google is too big
I just couldn't see anything I understood once I clicked on your "Set up a Google account reader?
I may just be too thick. Is there an easier step by step way to open a Google Reader ac.
I already get Google alerts but I got lost

The book on on-line giving is still pretty new to most and while its been effective, it took a long time to be accepted. Despite Haiti, I think mobile fund raising will take awhile to be accepted since its not yet been proven how to use it locally, and for specific events like you attended.
