As you probably know if you’ve been reading this blog for some time, Facebook pages have been a late addition to the feature list of the social networking website.

No long flight or dreadful jet lag required (but no nice sightseeing in the UK either :-).

Users will be able to upload photos to Pages. Check the settings on the Photos […]
According to a tip from a reader, I should be able to add a new entry to my higher ed facebook application directory soon.
If this email from US News & World Report (that was forwarded to me this morning) is to be believed, this application will be launched along with a Facebook page for the […]
By now, you’ve probably heard (or seen on TV or on the Web) what happened last night at Union University in Jackson, TN.
As reported by Ashley Anthony of The Jackson Sun in “Union University tornado damage update”, 2 dormitories were destroyed in Tuesday night’s tornado, 51 students were taken to the hospital and 9 stayed […]
I’ve just filled out an online survey from Jupiter Research about online social marketing with lots of questions about blogs, social networking websites, facebook widgets (or applications as they are called by facebook) and the likes.

My first UB column for 2008 (geez, I’m starting my third year with University Business, time passes by so quickly) is now available in the February issue as well as online: “Facebook Applications: The Game Changer?”
