Thanks. I haven't started using FB for my business yet, I am in a “learning mode”. Good resources here. I am subscribed to you newsletters and I often come here to learn marketing tricks Just finished reading your eBook about Follow-up marketing.

Do you guys know if Facebook has figured out their business model. Last I heard they were generating peanuts for revenue but worth over $15B – their valuation was all out of whack…

Do you know if they are more sustainable these days?

If they can come up with a practical way to “authenticate” Pages without requiring 10k fans or the 25k ad spend (which is what they were asking), then I think they can keep big and small brands happy. But I suspect you're right in that they are probably looking for a way to squeak out the big bucks from the big brands. We'll be keeping our eyes and ears open, and will sure let you know if/when anything surfaces about this.

Thanks for the feedback. I've only heard the rumor mill citing Facebook will restrict default-tab views for unauthenticated views. Unsure on timing, but I imagine it will tie into their Ads platform. I'm not too disturbed by this – it's still an inexpensive medium and w/ out default tabs, brands can walk away with a lot of value from Facebook.

Facebook's silence speaks volumes — I suspect they're working on a reasonable strategy to not strong-arm the little-guy but to encourage the bigger brands to pay up. When you find out, could you let us know?

Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts; it's much appreciated.
