    is facebooking hurting your blogging?
    it sure is for me....and i feel kind of guilty about it....but facebook is so easy and seems to engage a lot more people for me anyway..... i love the blog but seem to be neglecting it a lot...
    i still like to blog hop tho...
    one of my computer expert buddies says that the blog connections really help the website...so thats a reason to keep doing it too i guess...but dang ...our facebook is so much more used..

    I love going through the blogs. I log in to jills or Margos and just surf. Facebook, for me, is for friends, blogs are all about inspiration.

    I seem to be ignoring both lately! I haven't got the hang of a business fb yet. I do think fb is more beneficial for local customers. Most of them get the info. immediately on their phone. I have my website, blog, FB and now an ETSY store too. I know Ann you have all of that too. I do it all my self and am learning along the way. Could really use some fb classes! ;) I am back to school, "day" job so I see some late nights in my future if I'm going to keep up with it all.
    Hope to make it to your store sometime Ann.

    that would be neat laurie.... we are probably straight east...
    for facebook for a store ..we all talk it up a lot and we see our customers all the time...we talk about facebook and put it on the reciepts.i try topost fun and useful and just interesting stuff.....also what helped us at the start was my daughter and daughter in law...they are both young marrieds and lots of friends and put us on their page.that gave us a big boost at the start... i dont use contests or coupons......
    my customers love junk and stuff and decorating so i put lots of pictures on.and what came in etc etc.....the most popular was probably one day when a huge glass shelf full of heavy milk glass crashed to the floor and we foundit in the morning...a big pile of broken glass..i put a picture on of that.... it got tons of likes...
    i would put hints on and try and be useful too...it sure fits a local store....
    a resturant in town puts her soup of the day on every morning....
    we have over 1700 fans now...
    one thing is dont use your personal page for business.... start up a business page...get help!!! thats what i do...but i can post easy and put pictures on if they are in a file on my computer...
