A friend's Blog needs 2be Followed by the Others

He wrote his drafts and needed the others to comment and follow his blog.. click on this link  and press the "follow" button..

He also suggested to use social media online networks to get us all connected. I think Facebook is what we all need. If we create a group page in Facebook to connect us all, it will be useful in certain ways. The last two years, we used to share and track our college group online. We found it extremely helpful when we had our exhibition last summer.

Also the tremendous percentage growth for Facebook users estimates that Facebook visits were up 127% 
It can also be used as a highly effective business tool. It’s great for marketing your products and connecting with your customers and friends.  When I read others blog in the first task we had, I noticed that many of us are using  Facebook.

So, here I'm listing some reasons that I think why we should use Facebook academically :

1/ be informed individually

2/ notified by email

3/ create a group /events and send invitations (see who is going and who is not)+ approve the people who is going to join the group

3/ post links, pictures, video and comments

4/ track others blog posts and comments (by adding an extra application to our profile)

5/ use our mobile devices to login, (e.g. blackberry, iphone..etc) to check them, many mobile devices has Facebook application, so no need for computers to log in ( or wait for internet connection to come back or even go through advanced technical trouble shooting--->for those who couldn't catch up with others because of that)

6/ connect other online application/websites: youtube/twitter/blogger/myspace/vimeo...etc so we can share mini feeds, links, status ...etc

7/ customize your privacy, and add the people you know, chat with them and be updated with their live feeds and news, e.g: blog posts. pics, links, notes, ...etc (social interaction)

8/ record video online and it will be helpful to have the lectures or session workshops online for overseas students (Distance learning students).
