Facebook launches its implementation of marketing concept SOCIAL BUYING
 

We all have been told that keeping up with the Joneses is bullshit and reeks of herd mentality and resolving status/self-esteem issues with materialism. Right. Okay. Ahem. So There's this new marketing concept called SOCIAL BUYING which works on the keeping up with the Joneses social dynamic. Facebook decides to put their own implementation: http://www.insidefacebook.com/2011/0...micropayments/

Micropayments and social buying. Gee... I wonder which much maligned online content industry helped pioneer that payment system? :winkwink::thumbsup

I don't think social buying would work with porn per se but there might be some innovative threads and creative twists in this implementation that might inspire adult marketers.

I thought this would be about the hacking of Zuckerberg's FB account actually

The micropayments thing sounds to me like it goes againt the 'restore shoppers confidence' act.

Buy With Friends would maybe never work for PORN porn. softcore & babe stuff maybe. but i wouldn't wanna let my friends know all my fetishes lol

What's the tipping point when people stop giving a shit about what their friends do.

I already have to see when people "check in" to Starbucks or other places, now I have to see when they buy "monster food" for an online game?

Weeeee, I'm so excited. No wonder Zuckerberg is looking to cash out with this Goldman Sachs IPO scam if this is the best ideas they can come up with to make money.

Interesting point
