Facebook Listens. RSS Added Back to Pages. Will Twitter be next? In perhaps one of my most controversial articles (unintentionally), I wrote a week or two ago about how both Twitter and Facebook both quietly removed RSS from user accounts and Pages. Of course, with Facebook, on user accounts that made sense since they were intended to be private, but with Pages, 100% public versions of the site, it didn't make sense that they would remove the links and access to be able to subscribe to updates via RSS. It appears that Facebook listened though, as there is now a "Subscribe via RSS" link on Facebook Pages, and the source now links to an atom feed for clients that want to auto-discover the feeds. You can see it by looking down at the bottom left on any Page now.

Quick Search BandRx: A Free Page Management App for Musicians That Matches Facebook’s Design BandRx is the latest tool to emerge in the musician Facebook Page management space. Utilizing a modular design, BandRx gives bands flexibility in terms of functionality while retaining Facebook’s design principles. The small company saw leading musician Page management tools from RootMusic and Reverbnation pushing Pages to look more like MySpace and wanted to build a product with a white and blue style that better matched Facebook. In response to the decline of MySpace, the former home of band profiles on the internet, several developers have begun competing to host musicians as they migrate to Facebook. RootMusic’s BandPage is currently the biggest, with 1.5 million daily active users, followed by ReverbNation’s Band Profile with 504,000 DAU. Meanwhile, some companies such as DamnTheRadio, recently acquired by FanBridge, are doing more custom app development work for the world’s most popular bands.

The Rise Of Facebook’s Valuation From 2004-2011 [Graphic] Click image to enlarge. The panic at absurd rumors of Facebook’s demise over the weekend, coupled with the Goldman Sachs Facebook investment frenzy at the beginning of this year got us thinking; Did initial Facebook investor Peter Thiel, who invested 500K early on and still thought Facebook was undervalued at $30 billion back in September, actually make the most impressive investment call in tech history? So artist Audrey Fukuman, our rockstar intern Rip Empson and I set out to capture what the Facebook valuation trajectory looked like. And while trudging through all the speculation on this has raised some discrepancies concerning exact valuations, (I’m seeing anything from $4.9 million to $5 million for the Thiel financing but rounded up for consistency’s sake) I did my best to capture the zeitgeist through consensus, leaning heavily on reports on TechCrunch through the ages.

This hidden Facebook page feature is key to getting your content seen by Steph Parker on Jul 24, 2012 By now, using Facebook Insights to gauge your page’s health is commonplace. But, relying solely on how many fans your page has, and how many likes your posts get can only tell you so much. As a social media manager, you’re essentially in a relationship with your page.
