In addition, a revolution in marketing: targeted marketing, relationship marketing, attention marketing. I think, now more than ever, the small biz owner has access to the same opportunities as bigger companies. Facebook will transform how we do business in '08 and beyond. It already has for me.

On one hand, i don't want people knowing what I buy, and I want my privacy as protected as possible.
