The Power of Facebook

The Thought

What does a Youth actually want, subliminally, and what is that which facebook alone is able to provide.

A recent article which catched the attention told that the biggest threat to google is now facebook, because Time spent per user in facebook is 6 Hrs while that in google stands at 2 Hrs.
I do understand that there might be some biaseness to this but, then its for sure that facebook has taken google into a stiff position. What exactly has they done which google could not do?


Google, is primarily a search engine. With Enourmous websites, and n number of data in it, searching what you need is a huge trouble. Google helps you search it, quickly, easily and better than any other options available. But what does Facebook do?

Facebook, lets you meet friends, thats what is a simple evident which you all might agree, but
lets see it this way.

Human being started as an Hunter, for Food, shelter, he has hunted his way up, till farming came into existence.
Farming gave the Humankind, ability to stay at a place, and develop.
While most beleive that hunting has became a kind of "bygone" era, kindly Stop!.
Hunting has just changed its forms.

We are still hunters, but the Forest and animals have changed to " Other materialistic" things.
Facebook lets you be a Hunter again, and what best,
if you have the most powerful tool in the world (I believe its) Language and words, you are sure to hunt some really nice people around.
If you note, you might have an average 400+ friends in your facebook, but always, around 30 people will remain Online and if you post something, around 20 comments will drop in ( only when U write something exceptionally brilliant and breathtaking ), Wondered WHY?

Because as A hunter, you can have only a particular number of "Things" in your zone of attention.
Second Point is
The Facebook lets you become a Farmer too. Recent data reveals,
FarmVille has become the most popular game application on Facebook, with over 82.4 million active users and over 23.9 million Facebook application fans in May 2010.

Imagine why, because, we are still Humans, and the crux is

before we wanted everything and now we want to be everything.

100th Post- 5 Key lessons to take home- Reorganize yourself

The Thought

This happens to be my 100th post. An important day, as from last 100 days, I have ensured to do one thing except breathing consistently is blog my ideas. Thanks to so many people, specially Google, for providing a platform which is so unique and dynamic. There are 10 things I wish to highlight for you to reorganize your life.

1. The Brand Promise: The first post of my blog, Brands make a promise, and you are a Brand too. Way back I wrote on " The brand you", lets extract from these two post.
You and your appearance makes a promise, define it today. Pen down ten things you want to be known for.
Honest, professional, problem solver, creative, ideator, slow, what is that which you want to be known for.
Once you define it, you know what to avoid.

2. Search your customer and Woo him: Stop hunting, be a farmer.
 The idea you must move ahead with is, dont be a hunter, the age is long gone. The target is moving, and so are you, its hard to hit, and the waste is pretty high. Instead start focusing on the art of Farming. Pull your customer rather than push them. And did you note, the same applies to your relationships. Are you still pushing and hunting ( Guys! Note).


3. Experience is a great teacher, and Learnings are everywhere, just open your eyes and be aware.
Management lessons from Mom in kitchen. 

4. The world is changing, faster than you think,Being Updated is the need of the hour.
The changing world brings lots of fear, but also breeds lots of opportunities beneath it. Be ready to dig a bit deeper and your pot of gold is waiting for you.

5. Small Conversations, all that you missed is what counts.
At the end you will think about all the things you could have done, rather than things you have done.
Remember, its the small acts of kindness which matters more.

A bonus Take away: Consistency is really the Key, and guess what's the secret,

When you find this answer, they won't change the lock ( answer to the famous quote: "Whenever I find the key, they change the lock").
Consistent people remain persistent.

Cheers.
