The Great Facebook Challenge - It's Big Business
How to get your business get as much of social media
The Winklevoss Twins are set to continue their endless legal fight with Facebook. Why do you think they persist with court action after court action? Because Facebook has only just got started and they know that.
Facebook confirmed this week that it now has 750 Million users, but CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the company didn't publicize the milestone because user numbers are not as important as they once were.
"The reason why we didn't report it is we don't think it's the metric to watch right now," Zuckerberg said during a press event that saw the unveiling of its' newest feature a video conference integration with Skype, and a revamp of the its' other chat features.
No wonder the Winklevoss twins won't give up. And businesses shouldn't give up either.
