Word-of-mouth was never expected to occupy so much of your time spent on the Internet. For humans, communication has always been a necessity. Sharing information has been evident since ages. All the shared information so far has helped forge evolutionary development and we all know that.
However, the entire buzz about social media being new isn’t really accurate. The Internet –as a medium – is new but the underlying element of sharing information isn’t. It first occurred in physical person and then the telephone systems, leading up to the very first Bulletin Board Systems (1979-1955).

Since this video post, they have gone even more local in New York city providing local deals in Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, and Long Island. Find out more about Groupon at deals in your local city at groupon.com.

Ok, that I know of, there is no official branding campaign around the new social plugins which encompass the “like” button more than ever. In this video I go over my response to this change by Facebook as well as a retraction of my earlier opinion regarding changing the “Become a Fan” option now that I am aware of what the long term benefit is.
Blog post I referred to is here.
