Facebooks Tells Google To ‘Bug Off’

Writing by Brick Marketing on Friday, 16 of May , 2008 at 9:55 am

A couple of days ago we shared two social networking tools that small business owners can use to develop a social network at the local level. The tools are not public yet. They are still awaiting release. But the latest development could change a few things for you if you decide to use these tools.

Facebook has decided not to let Google tap into its user base to include Facebook profiles into its Google FriendConnect tool. The reason cited is because Google won’t promise the same level of privacy that Facebook demands and promises to its users. I think this is a good move for Facebook. It shows that the social networking site is serious about protecting the privacy of its users and it also shows that Google is not. This will likely be a serious consideration for local businesses that want to build a social network into their local platforms.
