Why I don’t like Facebook
Those of you who have seen me speak have often heard me speak out against Facebook. I’m on Facebook, I participate on Facebook… but I don’t like it. There are quite a few things I don’t enjoy on Facebook: The navigation makes no sense to me. There are menus, side menus, navigation that appears… I get lost and don’t believe…

Appirio Connects Salesforce and Facebook
I was just doing a webinar yesterday and someone asked me to prioritize social networks based on their ability to drive business. Although I don’t believe social networks to be a primary medium for marketing and advertising (based on the intent of the user), I do encourage our clients to utilize RSS and other tools to automate publishing of their…
