Shoemoney System Review & Overview

Saturday 6th March, 2010

There are more Facebook-related videos coming up, but the video that grabbed my attention was “This Is The Video Title” — Ya gotta love place-setters!

Anyhow, in this video Jeremy talks to Jeanne about how Facebook originally got started by Mark Zuckerberg, and what the idea behind it was. Now basically this sort of information — or most of it anyway — can be found at Wikipedia and other places, so I’m not really gonna get into it here at all. The reason for that is twofold — a) The aforementioned “find it at Wikipedia” thing and b) The fact that I’m just so busy with other stuff (I’m actually writing this (originally) on a paper napkin at the local mall. Heck, a guy has to eat sometime, doesn’t he?)

Anyway, Jeremy goes on to talk about Facebook “Beacon” (part of Facebook’s advertisement system), which worked with selected retailers from around the world, integrating from within Facebook itself. Although Facebook Beacon eventually fell by the wayside, it did make way for Facebook Connect, which has since become a big success.

Another thing Jeremy spoke about are the applications that work with Facebook, and the fact that anyone with sufficient enough skills can make their own application to work on Facebook (whether good or bad). He also talked about the fact that “real people use Facebook” and that it has some form of accountability. Now I really didn’t buy this as, basically if you really want to, you could set up a fake profile (or 20) and no-one would be the wiser. I mean why not? It’s not rocket science after all.

Jeremy also talked about the various people using Facebook — everyone from celebrities to politicians to internet marketers, businesses and even “ordinary” folks. He finishes by adding that, in the coming days, we’ll be learning how to set up our own Facebook Fan Page, learn how to optimize it and, finally, how to advertise and promote it to bring traffic to the page.

So until tomorrow, seeya soon….
