Today at Facebook, we announced that you can now “like” Facebook users’ comments. If there’s anything I know as the CEO of Facebook, it’s what people like. Let’s just face it—people like shit.
After extensive research (and consulting marketing companies that we sell data to based on shit you like) we have determined that it’s important that people know you “like” something someone commented on. It’s also really important for people to be able to “like” something when they don’t have anything to comment beside saying “HAHA!” or “awesome!” The “like” button makes it so you don’t have to think.
In the future we’re going to make it so you the user will be able to “like” something a friend of yours “likes” on a Facebook page they “like.”
I hope you like it.
Seattle, WA—Despite being 274 days away, Joe Groover is ecstatic about the upcoming social media event, “Social media stories: the power of using social media to talk about social media.” The unemployed social media guru has created a twtvite and has also posted 12,459 tweets with the hashtag #smstpousmttasm in this week alone.
“There’s nothing better than attending a conference about social media with other people you met using social media,” explained the 29-year-old. “We’re even using the power social media sites like Twitter and LinkedIn to tell people about the social media conference about using social media to share informative news about social media.”
In the 7 hour interview with Groover, he explains how amazing it is for someone to read something on Twitter and can use their viral influence by re-tweeting something, then someone can re-tweet the retweet and possibly someone else will re-tweet the re-tweet.
He added, “It’s great. Why talk about anything else on social media when you can talk about social media? This is why upscale companies pay for social media gurus.”
