If many of you are like me, you have a love/hate relationship wth social media and one in particular is Facebook. But put quite simply the numbers don't lie, and Facebook is an online tool that just can't be ignored.
Facebook was founded in September 2006 and spread quickly through the ranks. It is an online social untility that connects people with friends, business associates, and others who work,study and play around them.
Facebook has over 400 million users currently (to put that into perspective, if every single person in the United States had a Facebook page, it still wouldn't be enough), and right now facebook has become the driving force behind online news consumption.
On average facebook users spend about 7 hours a month on facebook, are more loyal, and drive about 10 times more traffic then Google to websites.
BNI Connections can't ignore these numbers either. We have our own fan page on Facebook, that connects the members, guests, friends, customers and associates, all on one page. Become a fan of BNI Connections and find out why we never miss a Thursday lunch.

I know what you mean about the "love/hate relationship." I've primarily used FB as a means to stay in touch with friends, with whom I generally don't need to censor myself. Having said that, I do appreciate its potential as a business networking tool. Guess I'll just learn to bite my tongue and shut the [expletive] up once in a while. ;-)
