It has been confirmed that Facebook bought FriendFeed for $50 million. Given that we utilize both services for our clients this doesn’t mean to much at the moment, other than maybe less work for us at Fresh Input down the road! lol. It will be interesting to see how Facebook integrates some of the FriendFeed technology. Maybe they are just after the talent pool of employees, who knows? Regardless of what happens we will continue to utilize both services on our clients behalf to effectively engage their customers.
I’m starting to think Google and Facebook enjoy sharing employees with one another too! Google has its history rooted in some of the most well know social media tools today. Facebook, Twiiter & Friend Feed to name a few.
