Personally, I believe the new ‘TwitBook’ feature is a very powerful weapon. Just be very careful you don’t shoot yourself or your brand in the foot with this great new tool.
Twitter has proven itself very valuable and Facebook has validated that value by imitating Twitter in their new user interface. The complaining has already started amongst the Facebook faithful, and I’m sure FB saw that coming, but they made a conscious choice. The pain is worth the gain. Twitter is too hot to let it gain a runaway lead. The Facebook execs are making a huge bet here and Twitter benefits either way.
If you are drooling at the prospects of using these features to market to the 150 million Facebook users, remember modertation is key. So are the other hallmarks of social media like authenticty and transparency. Marketing with social media is not about running around yelling “Buy Me!“. It’s not about traditional advertising either. Social media Marketing is about the essence of a good brand, trust.
Back in the early web days we had a client who wanted to acquire an email list and spam the world. I tried to explain why that wasn’t a good idea. The same concepts apply here.
Be friendly. Be helpful. Be honest. Then they will trust your brand and they will not just buy when they have a need, they will tell their friends how great you are. That’s the new social side of marketing.

Facebook is a social networking website that is operated and privately owned by Facebook, Inc. Users can join networks organized by city, workplace, school, and region. People can also add friends and send them messages, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves. The website's name stems from the colloquial name of a book given to incoming students at Zuckerberg's high school alma mater
web site design, Phillips Exeter Academy. The book shows the faces and names of the school's students and faculty.Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook with fellow computer science major students and his roommates Dustin Moskovitz and Chris Hughes while he was a student at Harvard University. Website membership was initially limited to Harvard students, but was expanded to other colleges in the Boston area, the Ivy League
internet marketing, and Stanford University. It later expanded further to include any university student, then high school students, and, finally, to anyone aged 13 and over. The website currently has more than 250 million active users worldwide.

You can create or join groups on Facebook and share information with others. I checked out the biggest internet marketing group and it was full of advertising everything from an MLM to want-to-be-rich-quick internet gurus. But there are groups that are active and professional.After you join a group, you can text-message other members, send them emails, comment on their profiles or contact them. You’d be surprised at the range of types of groups there are.[url=http://www.n-frames.com/]Social Media Optimization company Chennai[/url]

Marketing is the overall campaign for an item/location etc... From tv to banners and getting radio commercials and creating a feel by donating money to the local baseball team, Marketing does it all, and advertising is a small part of that.
