However I do think LinkedIn is limited in the socializing you can do... just making a connection is a bit boring. I like www.octopuscity.com since it combines the business focus of LinkedIn and the sociality of Facebook.

For b2b to work you'd have to join a group and become very good friends with others. Just recently a new app on facebook has come out to help businesses advertise to other businesses. More info of this app can be viewed at this website: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=13172922694 or visit b2badsnetwork.com to go ahead and add the app straight away.

Everything you buy in your personal life is some company's professional life. So, I definitely see legit business opportunities from the standpoint of companies creating apps that allow their customers to talk about their brand and connect with other customers. Where it gets tricky is in the area of professional networking. I can see the value of a social networking platform like Facebook for professional networking, but I wouldn't want most of my business associates as "friends" to the same Facebook profile I use to connect with my personal life friends.

The intention or purpose of facebook was to connect friends with each other in a social network. To position it as a business mechanism is not proper use. Tools like LinkedIn would better serve that purpose. I think everyone needs to seperate professional from personal life here. Let’s be careful here though.

With an established well designed LinkedIn network I'd say it has an upward battle.

The fact that Facebook is now being converted into an effective business tool for networking and marketing, as well as a potentially profitable business opportunity, further highlights the scope of Facebook's utility. It is truly much more profound than simply a social network site. In addition to being a culture in and of itself, we can now see that Facebook is inspiring interesting new developments in how businesses may be able to more effectively market their brand.
