Nice post. A short while ago Facebook announced the release of their advertising platform. Given that I had written about that previously, and was in need of some fresh ideas for advertising.

Boy I have to say that MySpace is just plain irritating and Facebook is pretty useless in general. I like playing Scrabulous, and while it wasn’t as irritating as MySpace, it still is full of annoying ads and I absolutely detest the poking and plethora of applications.

The true viable platform out there for real, substantive, online based apps is Salesforce.com. Otherwise this other stuff is just a bunch of white noise IMHO.

In 5 years? Wow, that’s ages in Internet time. Facebook will probably be one of SEVERAL channels. Scoble recently had a post in which he highlights one social media site that is underhyped despite having a massive user base. The difference between Meebo and Facebook is that the blogeratti are not there, yet a large chunk of other people are.

In my opinion, I see all this as neighborhoods. You don’t live in the same neighborhood as all your friends. You can spend most of your time in your favorite social media site and occasionally visit your friends’ neighborhoods. I don’t think you necessarily have to maintain a presence in all of them.

It seems that Facebook is doing its best, lately, to limit non-sanctioned marketing on their platform. I’ve started using them less and less.

I’m going to have to agree with Scoble and you, Facebook is definitely a viable marketing channel. Sure it will take some time to develop, but it will get there!

I love Scoble’s comment…
“I accidentally hit “ignore” on a FB friend request and now I feel guilty. Damn Facebook. Heheh”

HAHA he’s hilarious
Cheers

I have created a website for people who have been Facebook Disabled who are frustrated with the lack of customer support. This site is created as a community site for people who post their current issues with facebook.com

As a marketing tool, I tried to understand the demographics enjoyed by Facebook.In my opinion, the growth of Facebook is across age groups.I sincerely do feel that it’s a networking site that will do very well in terms of users and advertisers as well.

[...] Some might disagree, but there isn't much life in Edelman's index. That being said, it is interesting, if not problematic. They've simply taken a list with questionable value and filtered it through the lens which most interests them — and that's fine. But what of other influential media channels like newsletters, forums, or books? How could Twitter activity be a greater measure of influence than something as concrete as book sales? [...]
