Even when it comes to marketing. While social media marketing efforts focus more on involving communities with creating the offer as well as promoting it.

I particularly like the Social Media/email correlation graph - powerful. Do you know if there is an updated version of this graph? I'd rather use one with data a bit fresher. Thanks!

Block advertisements speeds up page loading time and makes it more likely that we'll actually bother to look at a page, rather than closing the tab or hitting the back button and moving on.

By forcing application notifications from Facebook apps into email, Facebook opens a new channel. By making users click on the link back to Facebook to reply, it generates higher repeat-visitor stats. Win-win. Lead by Facebook, it's possible that the new standard for brand-to-consumer communication will be powered by email and mobile notifications that bring users back into the environment to complete the communication loop. Kudos Facebook for going old school to reincorporate email. I couldn’t agree more–as evidenced by Facebook’s wholehearted endorsement of email in its new Notification rules and Developer Roadmap.

As our HP printers run out of toner, we will be replacing them using Pure Green Corp. They one of the few companies that recycle all of toner cartridges. They are also less expensive than our discounted Office Max. Guess that makes it a green-green win-win! We are taking another green step.
