Instead of unfriending people on Facebook, you can get the tuneout app from Altoids. It filters your FB friends down to just the ones you want to hear from. (No more Farmville posts in your news feed!)
Meet Meet Eater! He thrives on social interaction, specifically to it’s facebook wall. His life depends on it!
“What Happens When Facebook Trumps Your Brand Site? Facebook is now telling marketers such as Procter & Gamble Co. to focus on status updates rather than other applications that can be harder to get adopted or track, said Michael Stich, group director-strategic planning for WPP’s digital and relationship marketing agency Bridge Worldwide, which works with P&G.”
When the new Explorer dropped last month they launched it exclusively on Facebook. Real-time release of videos made you feel like you were in on the whole launch and that you were seeing something before most. In actuality it was really just a big commercial. ;)
Apparently Starburst saw Big Spaceship’s Most Awesomest Thing Ever and said, “How about you guys make something like that for us and brand it Starburst?”
Facebook introduces a new site for users to share their stories of what facebook has inspired or allowed them to do: from detecting cancer in the early stages to finding other video game junkies.
Whether you’re a UFC fan or not, this site is pretty awesome. A creative way to engage users by letting them join in and predict who will win. You get a little cameo on the site after some Twitter or FB authentication.
So, you’re telling me I let you take a photo of my smile and I get free Ice Creams? Why didn’t you say so! *SMILE* This thing also uploads the photos it takes to a Facebook gallery.

They have integrated a Find the Spot - Free Live Shows. Passion Pit and others play on May 14th & 15th at a random spot in NYC; to be announced a few hours before the show via their facebook page. Tiz be stellar campaign, yes, i like, everything.
Domino’s turns you into a Taste Bud Bounty Hunter by giving you incremental incentive to turn in your friends. I like to think of it as a smart and creative coupon generator. Great concept.
Follow, Tweet, Share. Like, Write for multiple chances to win a contest. Love the cut-out glasses and profile pic idea. James Cameron, your 3-D glasses have NOTHIN’ on this guy.
Farmville gets it’s first sponsored crop, peanuts. In a campaign created by Saatchi Interactive, Farmville gets the new crop and will also hold a peanut “Farm Design” contest. In-game/app advertising is something to keep an eye on.
In honor of St Patrick’s Day I offer up this Guinness related ATTTAACKr entry. Be the Face of the Guinness Grin by uploading a photo of yourself with Guinness foam all up on your face.
