Facebook


Are you a member of facebook?  Have you heard about it?  Are your kids are on it but not you?  What am I talking about?

Facebook is a social networking site, it is the most popular, passing MySpace this past year.  It has over 150 million users worldwide.  Your friends became members, so should you.  This is a good way to keep up with your extended family living where ever, your school friends, you neighborhood.  You can post your status any time you think it's interesting, even when it's not.  Your friends can comment on items you post, like pictures, links you like, video, or other pages on facebook.  See if the items you like have fan pages.

The Oregonian wrote a story about it last week.  This can be an addiction, causing you to spend hours looking at what your friends are up to and you posting your status.

Cell phones even have facebook applications, so you can update on the go.  Upload pictures from a trip or a funny sign you saw.

Hey, The Craftsman B&B even has a facebook page!  If you are a member of facebook, you can become a fan and I think you should.  It will let all your friends know you liked your stay at our B&B.  That is what we like, our industry is based on word of mouth referrals.  We don't ask for, or expect tips like other lodging and service based businesses, we just ask you tell a friend about your stay.

So become a fan of us on facebook, we may run fan only specials in the future and you will be kept up to date on what's going on here and in Pacific City.  If you prefer Myspace, see our page here and become a friend.  Either way, you are networking and sharing about your stay in our little beach town on the Oregon Coast.  And as always, I encourage you to upload pictures of me, Oscar Meier, the official meeter and greeter.
