Facebook Like button will show a thumbnail on you newsfeed

Facebook has been constantly evolving and changing in the past years so here comes a new change that will give a new perspective of how we use the like & share facebook button.

Today there was a change in the way "likes" are displayed on our wall and newsfeeds. From now and on if you "like" an external post or a website then facebook will show that on your wall with a thumbnail giving more details about your interests to  your friends.


That also means that share button is not useful anymore. Previously it was the only way to display a post with a thumbnail and a description, but now "like" button also have this feature.

That means that soon we will see many websites switching from the old "share" button to the new cool "like" button.

Song of the Week | Week 08 [All Of The Lights]



Artist: Kanye West, Rihanna, Kid Cudi
Song: All of the Lights

All of the lights (all of the lights)
(Lights, lights)
All of the lights (all of the lights)

[Rihanna]
Turn up the lights in here baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn up the lights in here, baby
You know what I need
Want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the lights

(all of the lights)

Fast cars, shooting stars
(all of the lights, all of the lights)
Until it's Vegas everywhere we are
(all of the lights, all of the lights)

If you want it you can get it for the rest of your life
If you want it you can get it for the rest of your life

[Kanye West]
Something wrong
I hold my head
MJ gone...our n-gga dead!
I slapped my girl, she called the feds
I did that time and spent that bread
I'm heading home, I'm almost there
I'm on my way, heading up the stairs
To my surprise, a n-gga replacing me
I had to take 'em to that ghetto university

[Chorus]
All of the lights
Cop lights, flash lights, spot lights
Strobe lights, street lights
(all of the lights, all of the lights)
Fast life, drug life
Thug life, rock life
Every night
(all of the lights)

[Rihanna]
Turn up the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn up the lights in here, baby
You know what I need, want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the lights

[Kanye West]
Restraining order
Can't see my daughter
Her mother, brother, grandmother hate me in that order
Public visitation
We met at Borders
Told her she take me back
I'll be more supportive
I made mistakes
I bump my head
Courts suck me dry
I spent that bread
She need a daddy
Baby please, can't let her grow up in that ghetto university

[Chorus]
All of the lights
Cop lights, flash lights, spot lights

Strobe lights, street lights
(all of the lights, all of the lights)
Fast life, drug life
Thug life, rock life
Every night
(all of the lights)

[Rihanna]
Turn up the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn up the lights in here, baby
You know what I need, want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the lights

[Kid Cudi]
Getting mine, baby
Gotta let these n-ggas know, yeah
Get it right, ay
You should go and get your own

Getting mine, baby
Gotta let these n-ggas know, yeah
Get it right, ay
You should go and get your own

[Fergie]
Unemployment line, credit card declined
Did I not mention I was about to lose my mind?
(my mind, my mind, my mind)
And also was about to do that line
Okay, okay, you know we going all the way this time
(this time, this time, this time)
We going all the way this time
(time, time, time, time)
We going all the way this time

We going all the way this time
We going all the way this time

Turn up the lights in here, baby
Extra bright, I want y'all to see this
Turn up the lights in here, baby
You know what I need, want you to see everything
Want you to see all of the lights

Song of the Week | Week 7 [Born This Way]

After the fantastic performance of Lady Gaga during Grammy's Awards my song of the week could not be other than "Born This Way". Enjoy the new hit ;-)



Singer: Lady Gaga
Song: Born This Way

It doesn't matter if you love him, or capital H-I-M
Just put your paws up
'Cause you were born this way, baby

My mama told me when I was young
We are all born superstars
She rolled my hair and put my lipstick on
In the glass of her boudoir

"There's nothin' wrong with lovin' who you are"
She said, "'Cause He made you perfect, babe"
"So hold your head up, girl and you you'll go far,
Listen to me when I say"

I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way
(Born this way)

Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be a drag, just be a queen
Don't be!

Give yourself prudence and love your friends
Subway kid, rejoice the truth
In the religion of the insecure
I must be myself, respect my youth

A different lover is not a sin
Believe capital H-I-M (hey, hey, hey)
I love my life, I love this record and
Mi amore vole fe yah

I'm beautiful in my way,
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't be drag, just be a queen
Whether you're broke or evergreen
You're black, white, beige, chola descent
You're lebanese, you're orient
Whether life's disabilities
Left you outcast, bullied or teased
Rejoice and love yourself today
'Cause baby, you were born this way

No matter gay, straight or bi
lesbian, transgendered life
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to survive
No matter black, white or beige
chola or orient made
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born to be brave

I'm beautiful in my way
'Cause God makes no mistakes
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

Don't hide yourself in regret,
Just love yourself and you're set
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, yeah!

Ooo, there ain't no other way
Baby, I was born this way
Baby, I was born this way
Ooo, there ain't other way
Baby, I was born this way
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way

I was born this way, hey!
I was born this wayy, hey!
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey!

I was born this way, hey!
I was born this way, hey!
I'm on the right track, baby
I was born this way, hey!

Here is a video from SocialNomics to show you ;-)

That explains pretty much how would be my day if I was fan of Valentine ;-)

HOW TO: use the new Facebook Bussiness Pages Layout & Admin Tools

Facebook has released the new facebook pages design! And of course I will show you the new features!

First of all here is how a new facebook page looks like:


The main changes that you can see is the app bar that is now vertical under the profile picture and the 5 photos on the top of the wall (the same as in the new facebook profile).

The greatest change though is the administration of the facebook pages as now the admins use them as profile.

That means that you they will get notification when they have a new fan, or when there is interaction with the fanpage (like, comment, photos etc)

Moreover now you can post on other pages with the name of the page and not personally from  you profile. So, for example, if I have logged in as Brand A I can leave comments as Brand A on Brand B wall.

In addition you can see the feeds of other pages that you have as favorites and interact with them even more (that makes cooperation between brands even stronger!)

So to summarize the new facebook fanpages will look even cooler but the most important thing is that the administrators will have more tools to admin their facebook fanpages!
