Tonight, just after midnight EST, those long flowing Facebook web addresses will turn into vanity URLs. Read more here. 

 

That makes hard rock bands like Cinderella easier to find. Instead of the big, geeky URL, all their friends, groupies and fans can find the band by typing facebook.com/cinderella. Groovy, isn’t it? There’s just one problem with Facebook’s fairy tale URL, everyone wants to try on your name.

 

If you have a brand or a band with 1,000 page fans, grab your vanity URL before someone parks it in your happy ending.

Are you on Twitter? Then you know . . . 

 

Online discussion is now the new king. Sorry, content.

 

Twitter is the platform for infectious conversation, and it’s growing by the #. 

 

By simply tagging tweets with “#” followed by a keyword for your topic, you and your audience can tweet and track conversation together. Read this Newbie’s Guide to Twitter. Find out How Twitter Will Change the Way We Live in this Time Magazine article by Steven Johnson. And be sure to follow my feed. 

 

Using Twitter, you and I have the power to propel new thoughts and ideas.

 

I think that’s what claims the crown jewels, don’t you?

I dig the way one firm sells itself on YouTube.

 

BooneOakley.com is a full service advertising agency for “people who dare to do daring work.” When they dared themselves to create a unique web presence, they produced this YouTube video, linking to about us and work. 

 

Being the super-consumerist that I am, I had to click to their online store at the right. I want the boss mug by booneoakley, because it really speaks to me. Hey, I should get my ass on Zazzle.com to create and sell my own mug.

 

The Carey Says Ums latte? That’s a bitter bean.
