Facebook Status Update Is Cooler Than You Think

2010 February 11

Widen Your Sphere Of Influence
The Facebook Status update is so powerful because of the possibility of it being viewed by hundreds, thousands or even millions of users.

Post to your Facebook status daily (at least), so your updates are consistently in the Facebook stream.

Word your updates in a way that encourage user engagement (comments back):

  • Make a compelling comment
  • Ask a question

When users make comments on your status, the updates appear in the commenter-s stream.

Why Is This Cool?
Because your sphere of influence grows tremendously and reaches far beyond your own network.

    Very true…on the negative side we certainly need to be a whole lot more careful about what we say with the new social search and privacy changes.

    Since I have over 2,000 'friends' I really do wish some of them would be more careful about what they post; especially to my wall! There's def a learning/understanding curve at work here.
