I’m keeping my eye on two invitations I received to the same event, a party happening Downtown this weekend.\u00a0 One invitation was sent via Evite, the other via Facebook.<\/p>\n
So far there have been 7 replies on Evite:\u00a0 5 yeses, 1 maybe, and 1 no.<\/p>\n
On the Facebook invitation, there have been 49 replies:\u00a0 22 yeses, 18 maybes and 9 nos.<\/p>\n
Looks like Facebook is becoming the invitation mechanism of choice.\u00a0 If you’re not on Facebook, you’re missing out on some of these invitations.\u00a0 It’s not just for college kids anymore.<\/p>\n
If your business throws events and you don’t have a Facebook presence, you’re probably losing business to those that do (I’m thinking specifically of Orleans on Front\/Voodoo Room and their Mardi Gras party here, vs. Calhoun’s and their Mardi Gras party which is the Evite\/Facebook invitation I’m talking about).<\/p>\n
Then there’s MySpace.\u00a0 MySpace is so yesterday’s news.\u00a0 It’s a haven for spammers and webcam girls.\u00a0 I’m considering deleting my account altogether.<\/p>\n
Fourth post so far, and we’re only halfway through the day.\u00a0 Will there be more?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
