Facebook is a popular website everybody know this and according to statistics reported in Web Pro News from Marketing Circle shows figures of growth have froze since the launch of Google +. Google + is good but its not as social networking tool yet for mainstream business. Why and where you can start relearning and reminding you and your colleagues the new important applications you need on Facebook to get more traffic via mobile phones, add Intel to the local interest, or simply reach out and help your fellow contacts who share a basic interest of Facebook marketing and who have a Blackberry or some other smart phone, pom pilot device.

First I would like to share today’s news, about the observations from three different sources that give reason to remind, reevaluate and optional extras to play around with to make The Facebook Page a more resourceful tool for contacting customers, local events, focus groups, Blogger readers via RSS, e-mail, mobile or cloud computing. The options vary depending on the software available to you. The good news is the applications mentioned here are hot right now, and I will share with you how you can find out what is hot right now with Facebook applications.

API is something that is keeping people busy, stalling businesses from playing with previous applications that in many instances have more practical options than the actual pages. Any web page generally as blogger we know the page or space you wish to funnel traffic and readers is based on a web page, most critiques of Facebook pages will be skeptical about a Facebook Fan page or Facebook community page without a website link. The reality is with Apps know the Facebook page has everything you need, but without for example a landing page built in the code of allowing the like button to be pressed has been the focus for the year, this is becoming more popular as I explain the update of the like button posts on top of the original like of page.

I have been meaning to make a re-review of Facebook for two weeks but have had limited access to the Internet. There was a post two or more weeks ago in a category I and many others read about in the category of Search Engine Optimization it may have been SEO moz I cannot remember but basically it was a post from a fan of Facebook, who used a blog and his blog traffic was 98% SEO optimised through Facebook applications that he had used on Pages and blog to rank well on a local level of marketing.

There are about on average three or more webinars that I get invited to attend and learn a week about Facebook, I am sure the same is coming into everyone else who frequent Facebook in the marketing niche. Mobile marketing 90% of the time restricts the ability to attend these webinars and recordings, but apps are being developed to accept things like Adobe Flash presentations and movies playing on the phone, for now though due to restrictions in Battery life and the price of mobile bandwidth outside of the wireless connections you have at home or down the Internet coffee shop.

The statistics and quantative data I provide is by know means accurate but the Facebook options available as simple as they may look are actually more than enough to instill confidence in marketers and local small businesses to continue using for business purposes, regardless of the current effects.

Many offline businesses understand the predictive two year estimates of projected continual efforts online in generating more business, having the time can cost money, spending can add confusion to the dedication of this business with the gadgetry online because of outsourcing and online delegating of jobs, but in the beginning it took understanding, but in all my experience and omissions we are still only at the beginning of this transition, any fan of social media may sigh, but at the same time there are ten people who are just starting out sending there first e-mail, or have just upgraded from mobile phone to smart phone.

Firstly let me reccomend a website that you may or may not already use or have bookmarked for checking in on current hot apps for Facebook or apps that were one you use but are beginning to wane in popularity, possibly due to drops in popularity often based on useability or floods of people. The website is called

http://apps.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=190322544333196&sk=app_179155722150113

 

I found this website in AllFacebook.com which states is an unnofficial Facebook information portal. They list popular applications to add onto your Facebook pages or intergrate into your blogs.

If you are a developer you will be able to get some ideas of what you really need to cover to reach the masses and give them something interesting to use your developed application. What seems to be overlooked about Facebook is the synnergy it offers, and the intel they provide, as marketers you will already understand the ability to make advertisements and sell or advertise there, or perhaps you are spending more time over on Google + because you enjoy not having advertisements put before you.

If this is so, I hate to burst your ad free bubble but the Google + account requires a Gmail account, and this is where you receive the majority of targeted adds based on the e-mails you receive. Also advertising with Google rather than Facebook is becoming way more exclusive, the predictions these past few months have been that small businesses ie anyone with an advertising budget of less than perhaps $10,000 per month may have to find alternative methods.

Advertising effectively has or was based on obtaining likes to Facebook pages, as far as getting eyeballs to information and creating a list of people to can share info, intel and make happy through content has come at a cost, with a more user friendly method of communicating with Facebook users given they know which page to read, or the group they are in to guide them in the progression of business, marketing is becoming offline more popular. You see a marketing firm opening up in most business hubs of towns and cities, but the actual money and intel raised has to be the online buzz of marketing seminars, webinars, blogs, tweets, mobile pings and other manner of things.

In conclusion I will add a few links one of which is just a bit of personal fun that takes a few seconds to like and see the Flash effects therefore limiting the post to you computer readers rather than the mobile hand held readers. Secondly a post again to a Facebook application that is hot right now in the public (remember the source of this information is above in the AllFacebook link, and thirdly I send you to a shameless plug of a Facebook page made a few months ago that not a single person has liked becuase I have neither shared it, nor paid for adevertising for likes there.

If I did advertise too, I am not limited to Facebook advertising, I could possibly outsource a few likes of Fivver.com or other outsourcing sites.

Finally in relation to the 90% SEO from two weeks back read on DMoz I would contest this and say blogging with WordPress or any other regular updated blog mechanism is much better and I know this is biased since I a blogger but much more fun, if you agree hit the like button somewhere.

That reminds me don’t forget to hit the like button on the post of the Facebook page you have already liked I am sure to owner of the business will really like that too, its just a shame that videos and images did not alt and load as quick as possible, but compared to the limitations of Classifieds with the limiting of HTML Facebook’s XTML is absolutely fine.

Finally if you are reading this from the APsense Microsoft page the code there for blogs is good too, but again I cannot give enough praise to being lucky enough to attempt good textual content, alt imaging and good old keyword research, long live the longtail and good luck with Facebook and Google +, not forgetting my buddies on Ning pages, have a great weekend and thanks for frequenting Robert-Bridge.mobi.

3 Pack of Universal Touch Screen Stylus Pen (Red + Black + Silver) These stylus are very well made and work very well, if all you want to do is find an alternative to pressing the onscreen keyboard. However, these stylus are totally useless for use with a drawing program because the rubber tip will not glide across the screen. If you use your iPhone outdoors and you are wearing gloves, these stylus are for you. If you want to draw, then you’d be better off with a stylus with a soft foam tip.

Hello is that…? Hiya its Robert Bridge here blogging on Robert Bridge . mobi and I have a few announcements so listen carefully because that’s what I have been doing and that is why I am writing this post. I have just learned I may have been Tellmanized, Dan Sullivan dropped this in a webinar and later in this post I will share with you the link. Also I am happy to have engaged having downloaded a great free PDF that may help me as an entrepreneur I have decided to reiterate that in this post.

Robert Bridge at home

Robert Bridge

Today I see a call to action of writing on a daily basis, and I know Social Media experts have recommended less posting and controlling social maps of say YouTube, Social networking sites and communicating with crowd within a broad tribe is a conflicting recommendation, and admittedly when I heard this I felt strange because I have been churning out relevant content online that has had a bit more of an impact in things like Twitter than usual. Now I know some of you on Tobri may have joined and read my musings on ROI within Klout or Peer Index with regards to Twitter and Face book, but I have been very impatient if truth be known. How’s your day been and did it effect your goals online, mine did but it’s 4.00 am and I feel another lease of life and am very happy on improving my career. I have been having a few complications with my mobile phone and it has got me down a bit. I have an android and it seems there are a few problems with a few apps and games that I use, this has been eating into the battery and there are a long list of new settings on the phone that I am currently trying to learn and when I well, if you own an android phone I am sure you will find it very helpful. What’s the most helpful thing that happened to you today, perhaps it was an e-mail or a phone call from a friend who really cheered you up.

Its hard, I have a thousand times more knowledge of blogging than I did last year and last year I thought I knew it all, but still I know I need to overcome a few hurdles. A few friends have either decided to take the route of writing goals or going to goals workshops and I have found myself at a Holt with this notion, what with the problems with the phone, learning new scripts for delivering my readers content and creating a social online presence that is worthy of supporting an ROI online. This is great if you as I believe about the future will help you earn money online. I have many helpful e-books on my hardrive and today I spent this afternoon reading about the truth. This is simply about learning how and when people are telling you the truth. Its very good and if you leave a comment I will try and find a way of getting it to you, perhaps I create a link in a newsletter on one of the various blogs.

If you call me we can speak more and my number is 07920401194, just ask for Robert Bridge, if it is engaged I am either in an interview or my phone is playing up again. Now let me share the links with you I strongly recommend you opt in to these and join the webinars and download the free PDF’s.

In the first link you will be able to listen to one of the best interviews I have heard with Tellman Knudson and Dan Sullivan February 2011 and find out if you have been Tellmanized too. This is new it is about the distribution of cutting edge information the trails and tribulations of information marketing and first hand knowledge of some very inspiring stuff. the second link came in earlier this evening from Joel at Joel.com he has recommended a lady called Jen Groover, Jen is having a webinar soon and with the webinar there is a PDF where you can prepare for the webinar. In Tellman’s interview with Dan Sullivan you will find out some great stuff too. If you wish to take a look at what I have been promoting and are interested in Weight Training then you can try  Top Body Building Site .

I hope this post has not overwhelmed you with too much information and also I promise I will give you more information about mobile phones. In fact I have created a sub domain where you can find out more information about questions you might have with mobile phones, perhaps if you look at the list and comment on the blog that way we will be able to single out the most important and I will start there. I hope also you like the format, I have based the format of this blog and created a new brand template based on Jeff Johnson’s Blog.

-Tellman February 4th 2011

So just a recap of this post I have been Tellmanized because when I hear him speak on new topics the guidance snaps me out of any other things I may be concentrating on at home, in this case I was trying to organise mobile phone whilst doing the laundry making the bed and doing the dishes at the same time, in-between speaking to a friend on the mobile phone, and yes I meant what I said you can give me a call and i can share with you whatever it is you need to know. Secondly I have shared with you a webinar I myself will attend in the next few days and have provided you with a link at Jen Hoover, see above. I have also gave you a link to a list of things you can ask about mobile phones and then I can begin channelling my time on the most important, although I will eventually get around to reporting on each. And please, if you get chance and would like to get inspired with Body Building then take a look at Top Body Building.com it’s an awesome audio training for young body builders wishing to start or improve body building (yes there is a lot of free content included when you optin to list). If that is not enough or perhaps you think it is too much information I am sorry but here is one more: this is great, its Michael E. Gerber on Blog Talk Radio; he is currently offering his services if you have the time to phone in and speak to him.

Push and Pull

Jobs come from SAP Push world, the information comes from the community pull, the rules for validations of things changes. Analysts who observe EMA information for Micro Applications and Instant value applications say they quickly and cheaply help, Time sheets, purchase order approvals things that help your business. For example ER contacts helps for accounts and deals you are doing with people; who they are and what relationship they are to you.

How many people are in the business market for using the devices and platform Applications?

Devices I-Phone and other mobile phones each separate platforms that provide different devices. Windows phone is according to Sapphire “a game changer with what it means to have mobility, links to Facebook and e-mail just like Yahoo does with Twitter and Yahoo profiles”.

Microsoft now has developed a new phone,

although Android has a huge following. Sapphire is talking about creating ASP platforms for building Applications for phones, Android maybe, for now Blackberry IPhone. Phones offering cloud solutions, Sky and Ceylon are offering Cloud based data for development.

Finding conversations from across the globe whether it is through new Applications via mobile phones or in Forums is something that requires a lot of tracking, some simple solutions for the Internet is Google Alerts, for example you can take your company name and add is to a Google Alert, you could even refine it with refined keywords that you use, be sure not to keep this to broad.

How this works on the Blackberry

Getting pinged for your posts on your Blackberry phone, is good but filtering out the noise from sales or other things when you are in a business meeting can be very distracting so therefore is a problem that needs to be addressed. Finding solutions to filtering out this noise better or troubleshooting is something that needs to be improved for business members.

Speaking to people and making connections with people rather than engaging with officials within your organization is another new suggested etiquette. B2P is one organization that is sharing some great information. Some questions I had after listening to a Podcast within SAP were about Gateway and who they are and what products do they have and why is there so much hype about there claims? Where can you get it what does it do? it enables users so far to use it with Silver-Light but there will be a wait this should be available from Sapphire by 2011.

So what are instant Safe Way Applications, where are they originally designed and who are SAP (Sapphire)?

They contribute to  Mobile time and expenses’ online and offline access to Time Sheets for I-phone and Android. They collaborate and work for Gateway who wants to embrace these mobile device services and who also maintains these Applications.

HTML 5 with mobile Applications.

SAP Mobile Apps

Push And Pull Mobile version

How can it be used with mobile phones? People are very passionate but like Gateway it is not quite there yet, there are many expectations in the gaming world. HTML 5 rich content traditionally you needed plugins like Silver Light but now theoretically the browsers have standard use of HTML 5 but this is not true yet. HTML 5 helps you make build databases on web pages. This can be available online and offline if you can download the page. People are not always not online, people are not always connected to the Internet however having HTML 5 without being online is very appealing. HTML 5 has recognized this and hopes to work on any device. Microsoft are trying to develop stuff in HTML 5 this appeals to Enterprise companies. (SAP with John Reed Podcast DEC 2010)

What is a SAP mentor? What is SAP mobility?

When you are using Social Media it is a good idea to know why you are using it and be able to know in yourself what you are doing at any given time. For example you maybe sharing information with your peers in your industry or niche, this is what over 50% use some social media platforms for. They do this to get noticed and to show they are keeping up with the changing environment. These figures are specifically related to people who work in IT, so therefore the peers they communicate with are reasonably well known and communication between these ends of Social Media are reasonably closed or private. The problem with social Media is especially on a more cheaper scale is very open and transparent. Knowing what is valid and true is only known within that community or relationship with between peers and mentors, developers and end users. Buyers and developers, paying customers to outsourcing between contracts and proposals, any noise that comes in when working at this level will inevitably be followed up and drowning out any unwanted noise becomes more important.

So to recap what this means at the nth level of what is happening is that recreational users of Social Media hungry for information to share with followers when not as best organized, refined to specific niche or industry can get caught up in the wonderful abundance of information. But from outside looking in could actually be more one sided than what was previously thought as the peoples portrayal of being spam, when in fact they are more so raising the awareness of the companies work. A good analogy of understanding spam in this sense is knowing the copy rights of companies, knowing and not knowing when not affiliated with any company is like someone reading the ingredients and sharing the ingredients with everybody. The irony of this is anyone who buys the drink or meal can read the recipe and figure out the secret process or creating such a top selling product.  For more information see this video by Thomas Power of Ecademy.

How is this effecting the Industry?

With open source and company based software its easy to see how this is effecting the industry. Learning specific skills in such a micro niche corner of the Internet is something that eventually reveals itself to readers and contributors, but knowing the problems and understanding the motifs of those who perhaps no nothing of the laws is something that needs to be refined.

Why is that happening?

Here is a good example of why this is possibly happening, how many of you actually read the terms and conditions when you join a new network, fill in an application form to join a network? I am thinking most of you do, however how many of you when you join do you print out the terms and conditions and hang it up on your wall so you can really study all the clauses? I am sure not many of you do this and I am certainly not saying you should, I mean why would you, but it seems from the industries point of view the fact that they as a legal organizations have to comply with these regulations means they have took time to write a logical condition. I am sure that from the point that you join and the time you use that network as and when changes come to the conditions you have the paperwork in front of you to read the full document and compare it to the original document. This is very simple way of thinking about all the red tape serious businesses need to consider. This is why special Applications that deal with this type of work is increasingly becoming popular.

So how does this effect small businesses?

Small businesses and new businesses may not have any knowledge of these types of habitual practices, that being said why should they, but as the world of official corporate companies see the need to continue reaching out mainstream and collaborate and work together with companies to find solutions in the Social Media world. They have phones and companies who want or understand that staff need to use these applications and by training to use them in a specific way can help not the company and the staff.

Overtime the more people within organizations who have been guided in this environment have developed special acronyms and new ways of creating language to understand what is being said. With Social Media this knowledge outside of companies is being carried by the public users who have the same devices who consume the same mediated fodder as everybody else. This migration and abundance of information can shift and change from one Landscape to another but the same principles, fears and guides will always apply. From the outside looking in the threat of misinterpretation is understandably valid but at the same time the introduction of new changes before they officially happen can have a positive effect on the end result. This is the same within development of apps on Linux or Google based platforms to more industrialized networks like Microsoft, SAP, B2B or even B2D.

A great way to understand this is by looking at language, the more people who speak a language the greater chance of that nationalities success because in communications the more people speaking, using and developing the greater chance that that language will be heard, a prime example is of Wales. When the Welsh people took a stand a said we will speak Welsh people started speaking Welsh, thirty years later you have Welsh speaking radio stations, welsh people singing Welsh songs, Welsh rappers and the community of Wales becomes a stronger nation and protects its language from language derivation. The same goes for technology the more people chirping the information as and when it becomes known the better, but here is the thing…

When things become viral or enough people start sharing the same information of something outside of an industry; because of its value, the company see this and get confirmation that they are on the right track.

However they also get a load more noise from traditional Media who have to report on any viral communications. The media feed the majority the information, this could take a few years or a few days but they do have to provide it and they also drive the companies or small businesses that started the threads. The problem with such a fast changing environment and the nature of transparency, is that, the chances are, if somebody somewhere is saying something relevant; the chances are somebody elsewhere is also saying the same similar tune.

The Good News

The good news is this is great for solving and finding the quickest solutions because 1,000’s of minds are better than one company stuck in its own creativity. Protecting the information it has developed over years of paid research could seem a big waste but playtime is most definitely not over. That said, if they forget about that and take time to find like minded people within the field and take them away from the open source free community and commission them into the corporate industry then, chances are they will learn more about the necessary mentality needed for today’s online dichotomy.

What is a mobility unit?

Mobility for the customers and the financial prospects of developing a comprehensive Mobile Business Unite. Who are Tech Head and who are Sapphire, why is the capital of Germany Berlin so interested in Mobile cloud based developing software.

Germany and the Crowd.

Germany has one of the biggest finance and banking units in Europe, they also have a leading reputation of language development in their own language Germany, they are  the leading country for the development of humanities and language. The growing number of languages that are being phased out is a good example of how small businesses are never even getting to be registered never mind being liquidated.

Push and Pull Mobile Business Summary

If this is the case, and the growing concerns about making money from mobile phone Applications are generally true then why are they contested for not being viable business business products. Why is everybody talking about the idea? The idea of having mobile phone Applications that really impress the market, the hope that HTML 5 can bring to the market as people are warmed to the idea through free e-mails like Yahoo. Newer e-mails like GMX are offering Facebook integration, which is based on the knowledge that so many people spend time on Facebook. But Facebook still has its negative connotations for some people. One is security another is the amount of phishing that seems to be going on there and another gripe people have is about the constant changing of the way you use and find the places to edit settings.  From a business point of view the widgets and applications for staff are constantly being offered more selection and as businesses try and shine more they obviously will be wanting their software to grow just like any other update on computers. These types of services are not going to go away and the similarities between the people who are managing to learn the new languages.
