I became sold on Facebook as a really relevant thing for me (as a 49 year old) when I saw how it let me re-establish relationships in the planning for a 30 year high school reunion. It's not the same as a full-fledged, in-person friendship, but it beats not thinking about somebody for 20 years, which is where a lot of us were.

In terms of its commercial impact, my guess is that it is ahead of us more than it's already here. If I were you, I'd get somebody with a Facebook account to search for "countertops". Tonight I get 211 results. I'd look at what is there, and see if I thought it was for me. There was a time when having a website was cutting edge, and now it's pretty much an expectation for a lot of shoppers. My guess is that social media is the next wave.

Why is it okay to send all that info out on the internet but not okay to fill in the census form?

Randy, I had a customer in this week that said the exact same thing about planning her 30th. There is certainly value, to be sure, and I need to think about that counterop search thingy, but I think that promoting and encouraging people to refer us directly still has better value.

Many of my leads are coming from social sites. Just concluded a nice chat on FB with a potential SS design.  FB is coming on strong beat the learning curve now.

It's not bad to have a FB account, you just have to be careful how much marketing time you spend on it.
