Facebook is finally going public this Friday May 18th, 2012 and let me tell you that there are BIG expectations from investors. This Initial Public Offering by Facebook will be the largest internet IPO ever in history by far... at least for now. So what will the outcome be of this IPO tomorrow? What can investors expect? Will this be the next big thing in internet businesses? Like Steve Jobs would have said, let's take a walk and chat about this...

Everyone enjoys a good networking event.  For both business as well as pleasure, the goal of the networking event is to not only connect with people and enjoy good food and drinks, it is also to establish and maintain long-term working relationships.

Most employers can describe each of their employees in five words or less and in fact often do in private conversation. That’s the employee’s brand. Can your customers sum up your business in five words or less? Whatever it is, that’s your brand. It defines you. Without a good brand, no matter how good you are, you can be more profitable.

In recent years, Stephen Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change has been promoting a new seminar relating to trust in business and has written a book on the subject, The SPEED of Trust: The One Thing that Changes Everything. Of course trust is important, but how simple, I first thought! Isn’t trust just obviously important? Don’t we all know how to be worthy of trust?

Have you ever send a message to someone in the past, something that you thought was not significant at the time, but suddenly became so important that you need to recover it no matter what, just to find out that is gone forever? Well, if you used Twitter, fear no more; if you are really looking for that lost tweet, the Library of Congress will be able to help.

Without a strong internet presence you’re simply going to be left behind by the competition. If you’ve already set up a web site then congratulations. That’s a smart business decision. Now you have to ask yourself, is your website being all it can be?
