Facebook Ads

by

Recently, thanks to Visa, I have been advertising on Facebook this site. I was able to receive $100 free worth of advertising on Facebook. This is a pretty large number; however, a lot of people have been having problems achieving results with Facebook Ads. If you found myself through Facebook, thanks for coming!

If you are looking for an invitation to BrightKite, look no further. I am offering an invitation to the first 2 people who comment on this post. If you have not heard about BrightKite here is a brief explanation. It is a startup aiming to bring location-specific services to the masses. At its core Bright Kite is a location-aware social recommendation service. Users are encouraged to define their frequented locations, once at a defined location users can view a placefeed – think location-specific twitter – as well as, post notes, images, and check in. All of the site’s functionality is also available through their excellent iPhone web app. In addition you can make friends, check up on your friends, and view your friends last checked in locations.
