My favorite is Levis use of the Like button to create a social shopping experience. They’ve integrated the new Like feature with every product on the site so at a quick view, you can see the number of “Facebookers” who Like the item and maybe even cast your own vote. Could Facebook become a Lead Nurturing platform?

Third, Facebook says they will enable this feature for Pages (the business version of your Profile). The point here for B2C and B2B Marketers is that as Facebook makes their platform rich in interaction and captures more users and hence more conversations about your brand – you will need to be there and engage with their user base.

But social networks? Basically, other than GMail, I have been unimpressed by any of Google’s attempts at social networking tools (and YouTube doesn’t count because they bought that technology, they didn’t develop it). And, of course, I use Google as my search engine of choice. Not yet Google!

LinkedIn is firmly ensconced among the “big 3″ social networks for marketing and business purposes, and though its base of 80 million members is far smaller than the 600 million users of Facebook, its impact in B2B marketing is larger. So how can you get the most out of this business-oriented social network?

In case you haven’t read my earlier articles, I’m actually very impressed with Pinterest and their approach to social sharing. I even took a stance that Pinterest may be the next raging social network and edge Google+ further to the back-burner. I’m not. Honestly, I hope to back on Pinterest soon.
