The Northeast Texas Consortium of Colleges and Universities (NETnet) has received a major award from the Texas Distance Learning Association. Chosen as the 2009 Outstanding Institution for Commitment to Excellence and Innovation in Distance Education, the Consortium provides curriculum and technology support to fifteen public colleges and universities in northeast Texas, including Paris Junior College. PJC President Dr. Pamela Anglin was recently installed as Chair of the Northeast Texas Consortium's Board of Directors.
With a mission to increase access to educational programs "for the people of Northeast Texas through collaboration and state-of-the-art technology," NETnet facilitates more than 20-thousand student enrollments a semester through Internet and interactive video teaching.
"NETnet has been instrumental in providing the infrastructure we've needed to expand distance learning opportunities for our students,"
said PJC Associate Dean of Distance Learning Ken Haley.
Distance learning is offered by PJC through Hybrid courses (in a classroom and through a computer), Online (through the computer only) and Interactive Television (where students in several locations can watch an instructor at another location).
Student numbers in distance learning continue to grow at PJC. Hybrid enrollment was at 822students this semester – up nine percent from a year ago. Online enrollment is at 1,451 students – up 27 percent in one year, and ITV enrollment is at 497 – up 64 percent in one year.
"The growth in these areas shows how popular distance learning is for our service area," Dr. Anglin said. "PJC continues to advance technology in the service of our students."
The Consortium provides management services to both SUPERnet, a regional K-12 consortium serving 64,000 students, and to the East Texas Interactive Health Network, a partnership of area health providers. The award, presented at TxDLA's annual conference in Corpus Christi, was accepted for the consortium by Darlene Flournoy, Conference Coordinator for the Northeast Texas Consortium.
Dr. Haley, PJC Computer Services Manager Mary Holbrook and PJC Campus
Programmer Keith Coco serve on the consortium's advisory committees.
Dr. Haley has also been active in a number of the Consortium's grant projects, including the recent production of a series of training modules for distance faculty throughout Texas.

Yes, I understand that removing a file with more than 40000 extents takes a LOT of time and that is not bad because such file has too much extents. What structure is created for each extent? This is the quextion because updating 40000 "bits" of a bitmap (like ext2) is very quick. I only want to know what is the way to get best performance with XFS.

FABTV is taking a new direction this week — let's not forget about important fashion/music/dance moments in film. It's these hybrids that sometimes make cinematic history. Flashdance anyone? But onto a less famous scene from a very famous film, the one, the only, The Breakfast Club. The song is so-so, but the moves are so groovy. Each character has their individual style that totally works with their persona. The Prom Queen is doing the quintessential '80s bounce kick, The Jock is working the air guitar, The Rebel is headbanging (naturally), The Basket Case is the most artistic of the bunch, and The Geek is, well, geeking out. Gotta love it.

Love...love...love...love this movie and Judd Nelson.
Omg. One of the greatest movies of all time. Molly Ringwald is awesome. Does anyone remember the movie Teen Witch and there was a song called "Top That"... most hilarious thing in life.
I love this. That's one of my favorite scenes of the Breakfast Club! My favorite dancer of them all was Allison(Ally Sheedy)!
I still remember seeing it in the theater, I was 12 and had a crush on Judd Nelson for years after that.
I ADORE this film and that scene is always fun; I love the "Prom Queen's" dance and the part where they are dancing on the railing. Love it.
Aw this scene never fails to make me smile. :)
Such a great, classic 80s film.
I love this movie, its one of my favorites. I've lost count of how many times I've seen it. If I see it on TV, I have to stop and watch it.
this movie is soo good!Me and my parents watched it and I had a huge crush on emilio in the movie
This made me smile.
(to clarify, I know that scene is from Empire Records, and it was a different movie, lol. the two scenes are just similar)
love it. a good one would also be the scene where they're playing "i don't want to live today" in Empire Records.
Love love love this movie!!!

The Colorado Division of Wildlife is looking for two, maybe three potential Darwin Award recipients who bought hamburgers and cheeseburgers at the Burger King in Eagle on Wednesday and hand fed them to a mother black bear and her three cubs.
"This is an extraordinary example of stupid and irresponsible behavior by people," said CDOW northwest regional manager Ron Velarde, according to RealVail.com. "Because of their reckless actions, the sow and the cubs now know that people mean food. This dramatically increases the likelihood that these bears will get into trouble in the future and have to be put down."

- 2 cups water
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup quick-cooking grits
- 6 ounces Italian Fontina cheese, coarsely shredded (1 1/2 cups)
- 1 ounce freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (about 1/4 cup)
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 bunch of watercress (4 ounces), thick stems discarded, leaves chopped
In a large saucepan, combine the water, milk and salt and bring to a boil. Whisk in the grits and simmer over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until thickened, about 8 minutes. (For thinner grits, add an extra 1/2 cup water.) Remove from the heat and stir in the Fontina and Parmigiano-Reggiano. Season with salt and pepper.
Fill a deep, medium skillet with water and bring to a simmer. Add the vinegar. Crack the eggs into individual cups or ramekins, then carefully slide them into the water. Poach the eggs until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3 minutes. Drain the eggs and gently pat them dry.
Spoon the grits into bowls and top each serving with the chopped watercress. Set the eggs on the watercress and serve immediately.

text: Ok, my car has some tranny issues. It mostly likely needs the synchros replaced and the forks are bent cause when I start out in first gear it will most of the time pop out, but some times it stays in. Also it will pop out of 3rd gear once in a while while I am driving. Also, if I just turn the car on, and put it in 4th before I go to reverse to back out, it will lock in 4th gear and I need to push the shiftr foward, let the clutch out a little and it will grnd for a second then pop out of 4th. So I know its the forks. I think that the gears are fine but I am not sure. I am afraid to have it rebuilt (By Rick91GT) and find out it needs new gears then I am even more screwed, but it might not. How hard is it for someone to replace the forks? I dont know if I should send it to get rebuilt or just get another t5, but I dont know If i Can find anothr good tranny for around 400 bux or less. The problem is this is my daily driver and I cant have it sitting without being to drive it sicne I go to school 2 hours away from home. What do you guys think? PS...rick...what are the chances my gears r shot? They have ground a couple of times but I dont think anything to bad

Rattled rock-star economy turns sour
Rattled rock-star economy turns sour
National's "rock-star'' economy is rapidly turning sour as milk prices take another dive, says Labour Leader David Cunliffe.
"We sympathise with the farmers who will struggle to stay afloat with the announcement of a drop in the price of milk solids from $7 to $6 for the 2014-15 season.
"Dairy is a critical part of our economy but the average price for whole milk powder has now fallen 38 per cent since February, wiping billions off the books.
"Today's announcement will take a further billion dollars out of the economy. The reverberations will be felt throughout the country.
"Labour has been saying for months that National's so-called rock-star economy has been built on vulnerable commodity prices and Canterbury insurance cheques.
"National is banking on milk and disaster.
"Labour has a complete package of costed policies that will support and enhance traditional industries while diversifying the economy.
"Our monetary policy will help keep interest rates and the dollar down – assisting farmers and other exporters.
"Our economic upgrade, based on investment, innovation and industry will encourage a journey from volume to value – in forestry, manufacturing and other productive sectors across our cities and regions.
"Our Capital Gains Tax and R&D tax credits will help to move the economy from speculation to innovation.
"Labour has a far-sighted vision for a fairer, more prosperous and sustainable society. Our policies will deliver better jobs and higher wages, affordable homes and opportunities for all New Zealand families,'' said David Cunliffe.

Very Complex sound which took a lot of effort to make. Used different techniques to create the punch. The drop was created by creating a body out of pillows sand ect. Layered and used effects.
Sounds like more like a neck snap or a gun recoil or something of the sort.
Very good!!! Many thanks!

Difference Between Dyke and Sill
Dyke vs Sill
"Dyke" and "sill" are geological terms used to describe an intrusion, usually a mass of igneous or volcanic rocks that forcibly entered, penetrated, and embedded into layers of another rock or land form. Dykes and sills are often associated with volcanoes though they are not exclusive to that particular land form.
As intrusions, both dykes and sills are igneous rocks that were left or as a result of crystallization of molten magma flow that exists beneath the Earth's surfaces. They are naturally occurring in nature and considered as "foreign" rock in relation to their surrounding rock environment or form which is "local" or "original" rock. They can be injected into existing cracks in the bedding plates or erupt as a pressure or force from a particular point of origin.
Dykes and sills "intrude" due to the pressure, stress, and deformation from the surrounding rocks or beneath the Earth's surface. It is often in a molten or unstable state when it "intrudes" into another formation and hardens as it cools down over the passage of time. The main forms of dykes and sills are magmatic and sedimentary.
Compared to the rock that they intrude or cut, dykes and sills are often slimmer or less thick in comparison. They are also considered wider compared to their surrounding rocks and younger in age from their surrounding rocks. A dyke (also spelled as dike) is a mass of rocks that intrudes or cuts across two layers of another rock or land form. A large number of dykes is called dyke swarms. Dyke swarms are a common occurrence in the creation of dykes and usually consist of hundreds in numbers.
Dykes can be classified as vertical, nearly vertical or steep in nature since its creation is dependent on the consistency of pressure that originates from below.
The usual classification of dykes can be diabase, basaltic to granitic or rhyolitic but other forms like pegmatite dikes and aplite dikes.
Dykes are classified as discordant intrusions since they are not parallel but across the pre-existing land or rock form.
On the other hand, sills are formed in the same way as dykes but their direction is different. Sills are created in between and parallel to its surrounding bedding plates
Meanwhile, sills are often uniform in orientation since the surrounding rocks can give consistency to its form. However, it can also be not uniform in appearance in terms of color and direction.
Sills are usually composed of medium-grained rock and often contain have certain rare types of ore deposits in its formation.
As an intrusion, a sill as a body of rock is concordant because it is parallel to the original rock or land from.
1.Dykes (or dikes) are igneous rocks that intrude vertically (or across) while sills are the same type of rocks that cuts horizontally (or along) in another land or rock form.
2.Dykes are discordant intrusion while sills are concordant intrusions.
3.Dykes and sills from due to pressure, force and stress from one point of oriogn. Dykes form when the point of origin is beneath the forming dyke and sill si formed when the starting point is either on the left or right side.
4.Both dykes and sills can be magmatic or sedimentary in nature. They are also slimmer, younger and wider than their surrounding rocks or plates. Dykes and sills as intrusion often have a different color from their surrounding rocks.
5.Dykes are easier to distinguish because the intrusion is evident between bedding planes and rock while sills can be harder to identify since it exists in parallel with the planes and the rocks. Only proper testing and discoloration between rocks can state whether a plane is a sill or part of the original rock formation.

The Cottey College Comets dropped their final home volleyball match of the 2012 season, losing to Metropolitan Community College-Longview in three games 14-25, 13-25, and 17-25.
The Comets played well in the first minutes of each game, tied at 9 in game two and trailing by one 12-13 in game three, but ultimately couldn't compete with Longview's height and bench depth.
"We started out really well [in game two] and stayed along their side with a tie at 11-11," said head coach Marla Kannady Foreman. "We then went 11-15, and they continued to make a 10-2 run on us to take set two. Our unforced errors have haunted us all season, and we have to figure out a way to overcome that, especially when we are up against some strong competition. The fact that we were tied at 11-11, states we are capable of playing with anyone in the region, when we limit the number of unforced errors."
Team leaders for the Comets were Alexis Self and Hannah Wilson with eight assists each. There was a three-way tie in kills among Self, Kristina Coverdell, and Skyler Ford with five each. Ford and Kasey Hall each had two blocks, and Kymee Bair led with 12 digs.

Haim postpone U.K. show due to illness
Los Angeles rockers Haim say a chest infection has sidelined frontwoman Danielle Haim.
The illness has forced the group to postpone Wednesday night's U.K. tour opener in Norwich.
The sisters have pushed the canceled gig back to March, but they promise to be "back in full force" this Thursday for their show in Birmingham.
Haim will be spending most of the next six months on the road supporting their debut album Days Are Gone. Their first headlining North American tour is scheduled to start in April.
Get well soon Danielle!

I know. I've asked Fred Wright to take a look at ipfilter 3.4.35 when
he gets a chance to determine what needs to be changed to make it

'Winnipeg is a fishbowl': Jets star Evander Kane
By PAUL FRIESEN, QMI Agency
Winnipeg Jets forward Evander Kane clarified some of his comments about facing racism after practice Thursday.
Kane says his statement that a good portion of the criticism he receives is because he's black was referring to anonymous postings in social media, specifically on Twitter.
"I'm definitely referring to social media and that kind of stuff," Kane said. "I don't think anybody ever will talk directly to my face and say anything negative. People can hide behind a computer and say what they want."
Kane says any hockey criticism directed his way is fair game.
"That comes with the territory," he said. "If you can't handle that, you've got some issues. If I'm responsible for anything off the ice, I'm more than willing to accept that as well. But when it goes unwarranted you kind of get sick and tired of it a little bit.
"I don't go out and try to hurt other people in terms of my personal life. I'm a pretty good guy."
The 21-year-old first made the

At least 33 cases of counterfeit new resident cards issued to foreigners staying in Japan for three months or more have been detected, according to data from the Justice Ministry's Immigration Bureau.
They include incidents in which foreign residents were found to be carrying forged cards or cards bearing the names of other people. Some of these residents had used the fake documentation to work longer hours than permitted by their actual resident status.
The police said they are increasingly alert to the situation.
The new foreign resident card system was introduced on July 9 last year. The cards bear a photo of the holder and information about their resident status, how long they can remain in the country and what jobs and how many hours they are allowed to work. About 1.105 million of the cards were issued in a roughly 10-month period after the new system entered into effect.
The 33 cases had been detected by May. Many of the counterfeit cards were easy to detect, officials of the Immigration Bureau said, adding that no sophisticated forgeries, for instance involving integrated circuit chips, were among them.
Many of the holders of the fake cards are believed to have overstayed their visas. But in some cases, foreigners with legal resident status were found with counterfeit cards, many of which falsely claimed the holder was a permanent resident of Japan, a police executive noted.
The immigration control law restricts the maximum amount of hours and the types of jobs foreigner residents are permitted to undertake, depending on their resident status. However, there are no such restrictions for permanent residents.
Those with cards falsely showing they were permanent residents were apparently using them to work longer hours than allowed under their actual resident status, the police official said.
To alert and educate employers, the Immigration Bureau's website demonstrates how to detect forged resident cards.

Dr. Laura Machado and Sacramento Bariatric voted Sacramento's Top Bariatric Surgeon
read the Sacramento Magazine Story here
We offer the Lap Band, Gastric Bypass, and Gastric Sleeve procedures.
Please call us at
916-338-7200 or email us at email@example.com
Specialty: Bariatric surgery, Sacramento Bariatric Medical Associates/Mercy San Juan Medical Center
Medical school: University of California, San Diego (La Jolla, Calif.)
Why bariatrics? Primarily because bariatrics is a very interesting field of surgery that can impact so many areas of a patient's life. Not only the medical aspects, like putting diseases like diabetes into remission, but it can also have a profound effect on a person's self-esteem.
You seem to have a real empathy for weight issues. I can really relate to my patients because I've been heavy myself and I know how your weight can impact all areas of your life. At my highest I weighed 238, and I now weigh about 160. I almost qualified for the surgery myself, but instead I followed the recommendations I give my patients to follow after surgery—protein supplements and a high protein, low carb diet.
What's important to know about bariatric surgery? That it's not a magic bullet that allows a patient to eat whatever they want. Part of what makes bariatrics different is the long-term monitoring—that's really an important part of my work. Patients need the long-term support.
What do you say to the naysayers who say "These people don't need surgery—they just need to eat less"? What I say to people like that is that it's a very oversimplified way of looking at a very serious medical problem. If you had high blood pressure, you would have no hesitation taking BP meds because that's the best treatment for it. And with many patients, surgery is the best treatment for obesity.
Do you think there will ever be a magic pill for weight loss? I think a magic pill is many, many, many years away, if at all possible. Obesity is a multifactorial disease, so what are you going to do, take a bag of pills every day so you're not as hungry? It's just not plausible.
On a lighter note, do you really use staples for stomach stapling surgery? (Laughs) Well, it's not the office stapler—not at all. But we do use staples—surgical staples—in gastric bypass surgery to both seal and divide tissue.
Do you cringe when you see deep-fried Twinkies at the State Fair? Yes (laughs). It's just, c'mon, do we really have to fry everything?

UK-headquartered mobile operator Vodafone is reported to be seeking approval from authorities to take full control of its India business, in which it currently holds a stake of 64.4%.
According to a report from Dow Jones, the operator has sought permission from India's Foreign Investment Protection Board to buy remaining shares in the company in a deal likely to cost around $1.65 billion.
Vodafone (Newbury, UK) is looking to take advantage of a recent change in Indian legislation allowing foreign investors to own 100% of telecoms companies in the country.
Before that change came into effect in July, foreigners were prevented from holding a stake of more than 74% in telecoms companies.
Vodafone seems likely to fund any acquisition of outstanding shares using proceeds from its $130 billion sale of shares in US operator Verizon Wireless to former partner Verizon Communications (New York City, NY, USA).
Following the conclusion of that deal, the company announced plans to invest an additional £6 billion ($9.66 billion) in its various international businesses over the next three years.
The funds should help the operator to improve its position against rivals, particularly in Europe, where it has recently lost ground to some of its biggest rivals.
Serving about 155 million customers, Vodafone India is the country's second-biggest operator and has continued to grow while other Vodafone units report declining revenues.
For the three months ending June, Vodafone India flagged a nearly 14% increase in revenues, compared with the same period the year before.
Having spent significant sums on licenses needed to provide 3G services, the operator is now hoping to capitalize on the opportunity to sell smartphones and mobile data services to more affluent consumers.
Although Vodafone's direct stake in Vodafone India is just 64.4%, the operator actually holds as much as 84.5% of the operator through investments in companies in which it does not have a majority stake, reports Dow Jones.

Mazda Repair Questions? Ask Mechanics for Answers ASAP
What year is your MPV?
What size engine?
You can have a simple combustion gas test done on the coolant to find out if there is exhaust entering the coolant. Any competent mechanic should have the tool to do this. It involves a cylinder full of dyed liquid that is placed over the radiator cap. Then vapors from the radiator are sucked through the dye and if it changes colors there is exhaust gas entering the coolant. This could explain the multiple coolant leaks and puffing radiator cap.
Okay, he is talking about replacing the head gaskets which is a long involved process. You may be better off installing a used engine at this point. Especially if the heads are sent out and one or both are determined to be warped too much or cracked. Before anything is dismantled I would have the coolant checked for combustion gases... If this test comes back negative then there is no need to remove the heads or replace head gaskets.
Do a google search for LIS-75500 to see a picture of the tester and how cheap it is!
To see an example (not your engine) of the head gasket and other components see below:
Correct, you would use the tester in the reserve tank.
I can source you one from Canada starting around $350.00 + freight or one from the US for about $600.00 + freight. So it sure could turn out to be less... but again before we go this route get the coolant tested for combustion gases.
To replace the switch by the book is a 1.1 hour job and the switch costs about 71.00

Following the launch of Timeline for profiles and Timeline apps and actions, Facebook recently announced that Timeline would become mandatory for pages from March 31, 2012, ensuring that it is implemented across the network.
The announcement made social media marketers and brands go into a frenzy. Kirsty Shaw summed up the anticipation levels in her blog 'Facebook Timeline – A Great Brand Initiative or a Social Media Nightmare?' :
There have been many social media agencies and PR firms waiting with baited breath for this announcement, but it can mean both positives and negative outcomes for brands.
Just like with Timeline Profiles, the new format will allow pages to present content by date, month and year in a more user-friendly manner, dating back to 1000 AD for brands that have been around since then. This will allow both, brands and customers, to look back at important events in the brand's history by browsing through page history, chronologically.
Brands have the option of making the switch before March 31 to play around with the new features.
The changes focus on visual storytelling. The new features guarantee greater interaction with fans and more controlled branding.
The most notable change is the absence of a sidebar profile image and the incorporation of a larger and wider 'Cover Photo', allowing brands to upload a 'hero image' that describes the brand visually. The profile photo is now just a small square on the upper left hand side.
The user interface has also been updated, focusing more on aesthetics and visual presentation. Posts no longer appear in a vertical line but side by side, making them easier on the eye. This also allows videos and images to be previewed directly on the page.
'Pins' allow users to bookmark posts, Pinterest-style; 'Highlight' expands a post to the entire width of the page; 'Friend Activity' is a box on top that allows users to see their friends' engagement with the page; 'Messages' allows disgruntled users to send private messages to the page; and 'Admin Panel' summarises user activity for administrators.
Facebook's obsession with visual content is emphasised through EdgeRank, an algorithm that gives preference to video and image content over standard posts in the newsfeed, providing visibility to pages that use more multimedia.
Another new feature is 'Milestones'. Along with posting regular statuses, images, videos, links and questions, brands can now share 'milestones' – stories that detail accomplishments, such as the launch of a new product, an award win, etc. Milestones appear full-width on the page with a flag icon.
A milestone is another content peg given prominence by EdgeRank, encouraging brands to tell their stories. As explained by RM Sorg in an article on Wall Street Branding:
Milestones you share will give your customer behind-the-scene access to your brand's activities, exclusive updates or promotions. By sharing this content on Timeline, you encourage user interactions and promote higher engagement rates. Milestones provides brands with self-expression and they are able to visually paint a picture and tell a story of their brand.
There are several data fields that can be specified on these milestones. Not all of them are mandatory to fill though. :
- Event – display name of the milestone
- When – the year, month, and day
- Location – where did this happen?
- Story – a story about this milestone.
- Video or photo – a visual to go along with the milestone
These are opportunities for brands that want to tell engaging stories.
The Timeline allows brands to develop unique identities and personalities. By easily being able to scroll from activity undertaken by a brand on a particular date years ago to current activity, users can see its evolution.
Features like a giant 851 x 315 pixel Timeline Cover, Milestones and posts can build a brand through creative storytelling. As Facebook designer Sam Lessin said:
Organizations have identities, that a nonprofit, a sports team, all have identities that they want to express… It's a phase shift for the company overall and how we think about identity. A lot of brands aren't great storytellers, but the best ones are.
Brands can thus humanise themselves, educate their audience and share content.
The focus is on building the brand rather than promotion.
Facebook doesn't like that brands use it as a platform to directly sell their offerings and for promotions. This is why Facebook Promotions were introduced, to make sure that brands would not leverage Facebook's growing popularity.
The two major changes to reiterate the focus on quality engagement rather than promotion are the Cover Photo and the exclusion of default landing pages.
As per the new rules, Cover Photos can't have:
• Price or purchase information, such as '40% off' or 'Download it at our website'
• Contact information, such as web address, email, mailing address or other information intended for your Page's 'About' section
• References to user interface elements, such as Like or Share, or other Facebook site features
• Calls to action, such as 'Get it now' or 'Tell your friends'
This changes the game as many brands used their profile pictures to perform one of the above tasks.
As mentioned by Facebook's product director of ads Gokul Rajaram, though:
Its goal is to symbolize what an organization is all about. For a restaurant it could be a popular menu item, a band could display album cover art, and a business could show a picture of their customers using their product.
The move away from static landing pages towards stories in the newsfeed will help marketers focus on listening and responding to their audience.
The biggest bone of contention is that brands can no longer set an app or a tab as their landing page.
This means that community managers can no longer control what a user sees first when he/she lands on a brand page, which worries social media experts. However, this is unlikely to affect traffic to apps of the page, as mentioned by Josh Constine on Tech Crunch :
This feature sunset isn't so bad after all. I've just learned from a source that default landing tabs only drive 10% of the total Page app traffic. 90% comes from published links and ads, which still function the same without the default landing tab capability. And when does Facebook make a change that doesn't cause some people to grumble?
'Like-gating' becomes more difficult now that the wall is the default landing page, as marketers cannot tell a customer to like a page to avail of a benefit or to view more information first up. However, like-gating is still possible through apps/tabs, only difference being that users will need to first land on the wall and then go to the app from the wall, for like-gating to take place.
Customers will no longer like a page just for one activity, such as an app, but will like a page to follow the brand's story, to get updates and information, and to avail of offerings.
This reaffirms that brands should concentrate more on quality than quantity by engaging with the right people, rather than a lot of people, as stated by Headliner.fm CEO Mike More :
Marketers have been conditioned to believe that the number of likes on a page was more important than the conversation. But the truth is that accumulating a massive amount of likes does not always translate to sales. Even an artist like Lady Gaga who has millions of fans and followers has a very low engagement rate on a daily basis. It's the nature of the platform.
With the exclusion of default landing pages, there are other techniques that brands can use to control what message a user first sees.
Facebook has also killed the default landing tab to entice brand managers to use Facebook Ads. Facebook Ads is the only way brands can directly lead traffic to a specific app on Facebook without viewing the wall. Some sceptics like Alex Agguire feel that Facebook made this change to profit from it:
The Timeline for Fan Pages is not for the benefit of the user or businesses. It is for the benefit of Facebook. You see, before you could create events, video, promotions, viral games to drive people to your Fan Gate. This gave businesses a FREE SOURCE of traffic and likes to their page. By removing the Default landing tab, you can still build your Fan Base, but now you have to PAY FOR IT. You can run Facebook Ads and lead them to any Tab on your Fan Page. Basically if you want to lead people to your Fan Gate, you will need to buy ads
If brands don't want to use Facebook Ads, there are other ways to drive traffic and determine what a user sees first.
Users are sure to see the 'About' blurb at the top of the page when they land. This will link to the 'About' page with more information. The blurb should contain a quick overview of the brand in not more than two lines for visitors to capture the essence of the brand.
'Pinning' a post to the top left of the Timeline feed for seven days at a time can give significant control to what visitors see first. Pinning can be used to direct users to a like-gate app, show off a photo or display an update.
'Highlighting' a post to the full width of the page can also attract users' attention.
With the new design, brands can only have three custom applications/tabs prominently featured on their pages. Additional apps/tabs are hidden until a visitor clicks on the down arrow. Hence, it is important to highlight the right tabs.
While it is difficult for brands to control friend activity, it is one of the main features that will decide the brand's fate for a visitor. Friends and peer groups are the biggest influencers, hence even a few negative posts by them could disenchant visitors.
Brand timelines allow users to send private messages to brands to air concerns or pose queries. This works well for brands that face a barrage of complaints and negatives on the wall, as brands can set up guidelines that grievances will only be addressed through private messages, reducing the number of negatives on the wall.
This also makes Facebook a great, cost-friendly customer service channel as interacting on it is cheaper and easier than on the phone or through e-mail
As mentioned on the One1One blog:
This is something I could see evolving into a great customer service channel, since interacting through messages is much cheaper than voice calls or email. I always encourage clients to fully maximise the potential of free social media services – this change could create additional ROI if you can encourage users to message instead of traditional channels.
It is vital that people respond to these messages, otherwise ignoring a private message could lead to a greater backlash on the wall. This is why a few brands have disabled this feature.
Like any change that Facebook introduces, this one has also created hordes of contrasting opinions on the web.
Most marketers are disillusioned with the changes, mostly because they exclude landing pages. As Alan Masarky said on Mashable:
The Facebook Timeline raises a big concern for many brands, organizations, and marketers that would like to keep specific content behind a Like-Gate. Without landing pages and/or tabs, brands will no longer be able to create unique campaigns that prompt users to "like" or engage with the app prior to viewing content.
A few marketers, like Cory Williamson on TechCrunch, have a different take:
If you're using social media, but your most "crucial marketing feature" is a splash page…you're doing it wrong. If you can't convert fans to buyers by quality content alone, you have no business being on Facebook.
Users are by and large happy, mostly because of the aesthetics and the no-nonsense approach towards filtering out spam-like messages by brands.
At the end of the day, the new pages were meant for users more than marketers. Take, for example, the friend activity that shows faces of friends who like a page, followed by an update from a friend mentioning the page, which EdgeRank considers engaging. Such a feature will play a crucial role in determining a user's participation if he/she is ambivalent about the brand.
Facebook's goal was to make pages more about storytelling than product selling. Pages look good and don't feel like billboards or marketing communities. Users won't be tricked into thinking they need to like a page to post on the wall or view content. This makes it good for users and it is more likely to keep Facebook a place where people want to spend time. Ryan Dymek emphasised this on a comment on Mashable article, 'Facebook Timeline Brands Guide' :
The marketing world is changing – its more about ENGAGEMENT and less MARKETING these days. A company that engages will get far less clicks, far less readers, etc – but what they will do is gain more actual engaging, spending customers. # of clicks is irrelevant to me if it generates no conversions to sales because it was a "trick" or a way to superficially increase likes. I believe the new paradigm happening here will generate far less clicks, far less likes, but will in effect INCREASE the real customers willing to spend money.
The new format is similar to that of Pinterest. This comes as no surprise seeing what a success Pinterest has been, paving the way for other networks like Lady Gaga's 'Little Monsters' to be designed in a similar format.
While the new Timeline for Pages received flak, there is little question that people will eventually get used to it, just like they did when profiles migrated to the Timeline format.
Brands such as Coca-Cola, Red Bull and Ford have already made the switch to Timeline and started fiddling with its features.
Ford shows off images of vintage models through milestones, to share its rich history. Red Bull has a scavenger hunt game, encouraging fans to search for clues through the Timeline.
There will be more creative ways of using the Timeline, once brand managers deep-dive into Facebook's latest tweak.
The Facebook Timeline will most definitely give brands new opportunities to deliver unique and innovative content to enhance the connection between the brand and the customer.
It's this content that is sure to take centre stage in this new format. A well thought out content strategy is sure to reap rewards for brands, as CEO of Wildfire Interactive, Victoria Ransom would testify:-
Timeline for brands will certainly shake things up for social media marketers who seek to make an impact on Facebook. One thing is for sure though: The way content is shared and viewed within a Timeline Page is incredibly important. Brands that constantly create engaging updates and share important milestones will stay at the forefront of users' attention. Create and rotate new apps for engagement, pin relevant and timely content, and update the feed with user-friendly dialogues to stay relevant in this new space.
Josh Constine of TechCrunch fame drew up a checklist for brands to make the change seamless:
o Choose a beautiful cover
o Provide a punchy description
o Feature your most important apps
o Pin the post you want to drive the most traffic to
o Highlight great historical posts by you and your fans
o Hide or delete embarrassing, out of date, or negative posts by you and your fans
