Posted on January 22, 2011 by Daniel Yerelian

I saw this image posted earlier this morning. This is a great example of how google connects with their target market. The letter is from Google Adwords which is Google’s online(paperless and eco friendly) advertising division. Read the P.S. at the bottom(Click to make larger).

It reads “PS: This card was printed on 100% recycled paper embedded with wildflower seeds. Plant it in a sunny spot with a thin layer of soil, add water, and watch it grow–while you watch your business grow with AdWords.”

How to view ALL of your friend updates on Facebook

Posted on December 15, 2010 by Daniel Yerelian

Did you know Facebook sets the default limit to seeing just 250 of your friends updates. Meaning that if you have, for example, 600 facebook friends you are not seeing any updates for 350 of your friends!

HOW DO WE CHANGE THIS?

1. Log into Facebook

2. Click the “Most Recent” link at the top of you News Feed Page


3. At the bottom of this page click the “Edit Options” button

4. Finally adjust the number from 250 to whatever you want(5000 max) and click Save.
