9915&ref=s
“This application creates a short, easy to remember personal web address to
take people directly to your Facebook profile, page, or group, so you can share
the link with other people, post it on forums, show it on your MySpace page or
print it on your business cards.”
Networked Blogs

“Promote your blog on Facebook and to discover new blogs. NetworkedBlogs
is a community of bloggers and blog lovers. Join the fun, add your blog, and

Professional Profile: Business Networking
http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=24265472995&ref=s
Professional Profile leverages your Facebook friends into business connections
by consolidating professional information into one place. It allows you to:
control your professional identity (separate professional information to a
separate tab on your profile); tag contacts (use tags to organize your contacts
and browse your network); and view companies you know (quickly browse
companies based on your contacts’ Facebook information).
Create An Event
Search “Event” when logged in to your Facebook account; click “Create an
Event”
Instead of (or in addition to) printing out flyers and mailers the next time you
want to advertise an event, use the free Facebook Events app to get the word
out.
Socialfly
http://social-fly.com/
A Facebook application which allows you to create notes about your online
contacts, setup reminders to talk to them, and manage your contacts. Great
app for keeping up with business contacts.

My LinkedIn Profile

Not affiliated with LinkedIn, this application creates a badge from your LinkedIn
profile that gets displayed on your Facebook profile.
Facebook Marketplace
http://blog.facebook.com/blog.php?post=2383962130
College kids use the site's Marketplace to scout out used couches and find
roommates, but a savvy business owner can advertise services and product
sales, as well as search for new employees.
Facebook Badges
“Create a Profile Badge” link at lower left column of your Facebook Profile page
Facebook describes its Badge feature as "a customizable way to share your
Facebook information on other Web sites." Creating your own Badge will link
Facebook friends to your company's Web site. “Put your badge on a site and it
will be automatically updated and visible to anyone (even non-Facebook
users).”
