Are you a person who has a hard time with change. Maybe you didn’t vote for “Change” in the last big election season or, maybe as you get older you are just getting to the place where you would just like things to stay the same for a week or two, maybe a month or so.

If you are going to be running a business online using the tools of Social Media for marketing you need to get used to things changing fast… even if you don’t like that. I share that with you because I need to remember that for myself, case in point….

I was busy last week getting ready to fly out to Chicago to run a video crew to record a four day event and so I missed this “little” change that Facebook pulled off on April 19th. Over the weekend when I logged into my Facebook account to checkup on a couple friends (yes real friends that posted something I needed to read) I saw this message…

I had time today to do a little research and now I see that the Facebook programmers have been at it again… messing with what I had finally managed to learn.  Here is the explanation that Facebook gives for the change.

Why did “Become a Fan” change to “Like”?

To improve your experience and promote consistency across the site, we…

To improve your experience and promote consistency across the site, we’ve changed the language for Pages from “Fan” to “Like.” We believe this change offers you a more light-weight and standard way to connect with people, things and topics in which you are interested.

So do you understand now? Maybe they should have called this a “Follow” button rather than Like as you might want to click on a person, business, political party, music group or any number of other Facebook Pages that you want to look at or follow along to see what they are posting but, you may not truly LIKE them.

So maybe folks didn’t want to JOIN something but perhaps they don’t want to LIKE it either. If you were the Facebook god/goddess (programmers) what do you think this should be called?

Today on CNBC the Harvard Business School students talked about what their ideas would be for a good business plan for Twitter.com. One concern the Harvard Business School students, as well as other uses of Twitter have is, how might advertising effect or possibly disrupt Twitter uses online and mobile experience.

Twitter along with other Social Media tools like Facebook.com have become a new way for businesses to get their message out to the public, connect with current customers, and to protect their brand by monitoring the talk about their businesses online.

Those who have been trying to convince us that humans are the cause of global warming, climate change or whatever title is today are going to need to find a new source for data to support their theories. Mr. Al Gore, who invented the Internet, may need to work harder to find “real research” that can show that what we are seeing happening around the world is truly caused by use humans and not normal changes to climate in our world.

In November 2008 while in Nuremberg, Germany with my wife I saw Mr. Gores book, “An Inconvenient Truth” in the window of a bookstore. It made me wonder why this message had traveled so far so fast. I guessed that he must have become a master of marketing on the Internet that he had invented back in the 1990′s to spread this story around the world.

Here is a good place to learn more about the “stories” in his book. Find out why Mr. Gore owes us an apology HERE.

I firmly believe that we need to take care of our planet. This is the only one that God gave us and He made it perfect for us. We were placed here with a mandate to take care of this world. Part of taking care of the earth is to be truthful regarding research and writing about what is happening to our wonderful world.

What do you think about these new revelations?

Where do you stand on the issue of climate change or global warming?

I almost forgot about that dumb ad page until I noticed a Trending item on my Twitter page tonight… Google Buzz

Wow, is that a Hot Item and lots of people are upset with Google about this new “feature” that the Google boys (and girls) think is soooo coollll. Most folks thinks it stinks!

Checkout these blogs and postings to see what the Internet-universe thinks of Google today.

Molly Wood says, “I know some of the technorati are losing their minds over the awesomeness that is Google Buzz, but I think that Google’s making a lot of Facebook’s privacy and opt-in mistakes right out of the gate, and it’s going to bite it big-time, if it doesn’t fix it pronto.” READ MORE HERE

At the Official Google Blog, “”Today, we’re launching Google Buzz, a new way to start conversations about the things you find interesting and share updates, photos, videos and more. Buzz is built right into Gmail, so there’s nothing to set up — you’re automatically following the people you email and chat with the most.” READ MORE HERE

Business Insider says, “There is a huge privacy flaw in Google’s new Twitter/Facebook competitor, Google Buzz. When you first go into Google Buzz, it automatically sets you up with followers and people to follow.” READ MORE HERE

And over at Computer World, what’s that about a Naked Man?? “The second thing I saw was a list of public “buzzes” from people in my immediate area (including somebody who obligingly mentioned that he wasn’t wearing any clothes). Under each buzz was the person’s location — not the general location, but the full address. Street number, street name, city, state.” READ MORE HERE

Ok, so I think you get the idea, Google Buzz in the current form that has been pushed out on the world in the past 24-48 hours is a stinker.

If you want to turn it off, as I did, there is a button at the bottom or your Gmail page.

“Police have been known to use social media like Facebook and Twitter to track down thieves (the IRS, too), and careless Facebooking can quickly get you arrested. But if you’re on the run from the law, there’s another online territory you might want to consider avoiding: World of Warcraft.” …more
