Precisely 3 years ago a sweet heart of mine (zimba thanx a million) sent me an invite to join facebook, back then i didnt see any reason to, cos i was like: "another one bites the social networking dust". Call me foolish, back then i was so disgusted @ these social networking sites (i bet sean kingston felt good about myspace cos it made him...lol) that i considered it a total waste of time.
and then for some reason Mark removed the campus limitation from facebook which enabled pips all over the world to join. Well that single decision to go totally global is one of the best decisions ever made by the aforementioned if you dont agree, i bet Mark's bank account can testify to that fact.
And so I joined, and before long i made some cool dough, cos i met some of my biggest clients on facebook back then. It isn't all about money, In my opinion: " facebook is the second best IT innovation after the Internet" you can quote me anywhere. Truth is, it has opened a whole new perspective to relationships & networking, even more information dissemination became seamless with even more control to information owners. Ok i bet by now you are thinking i probably got paid for the facebook PR i'm doing...WRONG!.
You can never fault a good brand, and facebook is one, why else would microsoft pay $240mill for just 1.6%...lol. This month facebook turned 5 and its been an awesome experience using facebook, i have found long lost childhood sweethearts, cousins, friends..etc. Nigerians have easily embraced facebook, musical tracks have been realeased about facebook...lol. Last i heard Mark Zuckerberg, facebook founder still leaves in his old apartment with his matress on the floor, and still dresses in Tshirts and Jeans.
Well somehow my addiction is worth it, what's your facebook story?
