Ever wonder what is the most searched terms are on Facebook, Bing and Yahooo. Well check this graphic out and see what everyone wants to know about. — No more britneyspears topping the list.  Having Facebook and Youtube  on the top is no huge surprise but the massive numbers are and that facebook is a consistent top result for all three engines is crazy. If your business is NOT on facebook you are missing the boat.   Iwas kinda shocked about Myspace I just personally haven’t spent time there and people in my world don’t seem to either but clearly Myspace is still quite popular.

Facebook is near 500 million monthly unique visitors. The social network saw 484 million unique visitors worldwide in March, 2010, according to comScore’s latest estimate. That number is up 64 percent from a year ago, and up 22 million from just February, 2010. So basically it grew by about the size of Twitter’s entire U.S. audience in a single month.  Read more

Facebook is making a big change that will impact users once again. If you are a business with a fan page keep reading.

 The biggest change is that users no longer “Become a Fan” of a fan page. Instead they will now “Like” a page and people will no longer be listed as fans, but will be “People who Like This.” Facebook explains the change.

This is what Facebook has posted on fan pages: “Introducing the Like button — Starting today people will be able to connect with your Page by clicking “Like” rather than “Become a Fan.” We hope this action will feel much more lightweight, and that it will increase the number of connections made across the site. Learn more.

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

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.

What does it mean to “Like” a Page?

When you click “Like” on a Page, you are making a connection to that Page. The Page will be displayed in your profile, and in turn, you will be displayed on the Page as a person who likes that Page. The Page will also be able to post content into your News Feed.

Can I still “Like” a News Feed story about my friends Liking Pages?

No. When you see a Feed story about a friend Liking a Page, there will be no feedback links below that story. However, if you hover over the Page name, you will see a small preview of the Page and the number of other people who have also Liked that Page. You can then Like that Page to add it to your profile, or you can click through to the Page itself.

Is there a difference between “Liking” an item a friend posts and “Liking” a Page?

Yes. Liking a Page means you are connecting to that Page. When you connect to a Page, it will appear in your profile and you will appear on the Page as a person who likes that Page. The Page will also be able to post content into your News Feed.

On the other hand, when you click “Like” on a piece of content that a friend posts, you are simply letting your friend know that you like it without leaving a comment.
