Facebook just released new share/connect functionality in the form of Send Button. The send button enables your site visitors to send your content directly to their friends as a private message. Unlike the share and like buttons, which post to a users wall, the send message may be more effective as it targets individuals or Groups. Presumably the recipients would have more interest in the content, otherwise why would someone send directly to them?

Finally Get Rid of Those Crazy Long Facebook Page URL’s

Almost two years later, I am coming across many businesses and individuals who haven’t set up their vanity name. I find that many small business owners who are just developing their presence on Facebook don’t know about usernames or how to go about setting one up.
