One of the biggest complaints about Facebook is that there isn’t good communication about new features, changes and privacy settings.
There are a number of Facebook pages devoted to the all things Facebook so I will round them up here. Liking these pages will add their updates to your news stream and may make it a little easier to keep up with Facebook news and information.
Facebook launched the new page browser last week making it easier for users to discover new pages. Pages are displayed in a grid of photos. Any that have blue borders are pages that you already like. You can view all or sift through them via seven categories such as Movies, TV Shows, Celebrities, etc.
To the right of the page is a list of your friends with similar interests and it tells you how many pages you like in common.
It isn’t exactly easy to integrate a website’s contact with Facebook but many people want to collect customer or visitor data via a contact form.
Fortunately, Response-o-matic has created an online tool that makes form creation and integration a snap. Here I will show you how to do this.
Like all of us, I get a lot of emails. I try to answer them all even though general inquiries don’t get answered very fast.
Sometimes, however, an email question gives me an idea for a post – like this one.
I was asked if it was possible to send updates to Facebook fans based on their location. Since I am unable to store a lot of new information in my brain anymore, I tested it out and determined that, yes, it can be done.
So, here’s how to do it.
Facebook has a livestream application in which live events can occur and viewers can comment on the even in real time. Each viewer’s comment gets posted to their wall with a link back to the event, which increased the visibility of the event.
Setting up a live event on Facebook, however, is more than most of us need to do and will incur some costs setting up the event through Vimeo and other Facebook partners. We can, however, still take advantage of the Livestream application and use it with static content. The viewers can still comment on the content in real time and their wall postings will increase the visibility of your video or other materials.
Here’s how to set up the Livestream application with your static content.
