There was a day when people would compare Facebook and Google. Obviously, there were major differences; Google was a search engine, Facebook was a social network. However, now Google has entered the picture with Google+, their version of a social network. Facebook and Google+ have a few similarities, and now many are asking where they should spend their time. The answer is easy: spend your time where you will get the most value. Here's a breakdown of how the two stack up.

Where to Spend Your Social Networking Time
When evaluating your social media return on investment for clients, look at the following things to determine value:
- Increase in website visitors
- Increase of impressions
- Positive press mentions
- Click-throughs
- Positive word-of-mouth mentions
- Employment applications submitted to your business
- Blog mentions
- Increased followers through such platforms as Twitter and LinkedIn
When you figure out which network gives you the best results from the items above, invest in it by jumping in with both feet. That's the key to social media success.

Updated According to various UK media sources today, the buzzwords said to trigger the US, UK, Canada, New Zealand spying mechanism Echelon have been "posted on the Internet". We haven't found the file and it hasn't popped up on the authoritative site for these sorts of things, Cryptome.org, so we'd not put too much weight behind it.
However, just for your interest, we give you a quick run-through on what some of the words are.
There are the obvious phrases like "Kill the President" which caused two schoolboys from the UK to be quizzed by special branch, "anarchy", "echelon" :-), "nuclear", "assassinate". Then there are ones that are dodgy (cause they fit in with X-file type paranoia) like "Roswell", "Waco", "World Trade Center", "Soros" - after George Soros, "Whitewater".
Then there are a suspiciously large number of hacker names: Furby, Bugs Bunny, Bubba the Love etc. But just when we thought it was obviously some script-kiddie hoax, a few interesting words crop up:
- FRU - the cover name for the SAS in Northern Ireland
- Lebed - an ex-Russian general, now a politician
- HALO - a type of parachute jump
- Spetznaz - the Russian SAS
- Al Amn al-Askari - a member of the Iraqi cabinet
- Glock 26 - a ceramic handgun that can't be detected by airport scanners (a reader informs us that the Glock 26 is only partly ceramic, the bullets are metal and is can be detected at airports - so we should really shift this one into the X-file list)
- Steak Knife - the codename for an IRA double agent
And so on and so forth.
Go through them carefully to satisfy your paranoid fantasies (you'll be safe under the bed, trust us). ®
Update
We've been sent this list which may or may not be the same as the one that Block Echelon Day used and which has hit papers today. Who knows? (They do). Enjoy... Click on this link to see the words... Nope I will NOT publish them on MY OWN Blog.
