Web 2.0 workspace (Facebook)

facebook1

Remember when you were young and waiting for the school’s field trip of the candy factory tour?

Well, I do 🙂

Now I can’t wait to go to trade shows with my favorite Web 2.0 companies to visit their tiny booth.

So..
I figured to browse the visits and photo galleries all over to bring you the “behind the scene” actual workspace of some of the popular Web 2.0 offices world wide in a series of posts. Each post will contain photos of a Web 2.0 company. I am starting this one with photos of Facebook SF (The last 2 photos are from the brand new Facebook NYC).

Enjoy! 😉

Happy Holidays from Facebook devs!

As I was going through my wave of messages, I received this message from the Facebook Platform team (As a developer):

We wanted to take a moment and thank you for all of your great work and amazing applications that have helped make Facebook Platform the largest and fastest-growing social platform over the past year and a half.

X-Factor Video Reveals Facebook Secret

Just imagine…
 
You’ve heard about the blogging phenomena making the rounds lately.
 
And you’ve even though about setting up your own blog.
 
But perhaps the biggest question you’ve had so far is:
 
“What on earth shall I blog about?”
 
But don’t worry, you’re not alone.
 
And there’s some good news for you as well…
 
Not many people know what they want to blog about when they’re just getting started.
 
And that’s why Yaro Starak and Gideon Shalwick have just created a special X-Factor Strategy video that shows you how…
 
If you’re in any doubt as to what you should be blogging about, this X-Factor strategy video will get you off to a great start.
 
The video is an elaboration of one of the X-Factor strategies inside Yaro and Gideon’s report – The Roadmap To Become A Blogger, which has already been downloaded 8,789 times in the last week!
 
It looks at a little-known feature of the social media giant Facebook, and shows you how to use it to your advantage and uncover multiple exploitable
niche areas.
 
You can watch the whole video, without paying a cent or even giving away your details, over here.
 
Just go ahead and watch the video…
 
It really wont cost you a thing, and it even comes with a full transcript that you can print out and follow along while you watch the video.
 
It’s a no-brainer – just go and watch it now:
 

 
If nothing else, you’ll get to know how to make friends with people from all over the world at the click of a button. And that could be very handy when you’re doing research for your new blog project.
