Facebook is no longer interesting, and it’s feed is more commercial than ever. Users are moving to more focused social sites – and here’s another proof.

I hate Facebook, I said it once and I’ll say it again. They make us marketers and or business owners go through so much crap for a service that is not that valuable.. We can be marketing on Pinterest (what this article is saying), Tumblr, Stumbleupon, TWITTER (my favorite), Foursquare, Linkedin, and the list goes on. Facebook doesn’t provide enough value for the crap they make us put up with not showing our statuses to all our fans — and then make us PAY to then reach OUR FANS.
Instead taking the time that you would have spent working out Facebook’s crazy restrictions in their FB ads (don’t get me started).
Sephora also outlined something interesting in this article where they just see some social media sites for customer interaction (they were referencing Facebook). It gives insight that they don’t just go to these social networks to try and convert these people into customers, but with the main focus of being in their potential customers radar. Interacting with a customer while they waste time on a social network like Facebook (and they’re definately not going to buy something), they may then buy something later when viewing the web — or your interacting with previous customers and keeping them in good graces with your brand will cause a repeat purchase from them.
