It's clear; there's zero difference.

There I might need to disagree a little. Where, by looking at your sig, it could be beneficial to have both marketing techniques, you could do well with either. But there are some real differences. Look at some of the major brands out there though. They focus more on offline marketing, looking at TV ads, radio ads etc. and then have a support campaign online that is basically no more than a site and pages on social networks. Brands like coke-a-cola, red bull etc. Restaurants would be the same I think. Where they may have an online campaign to show visitors to their site where they are, they are more location based and need to focus on marketing offline as well to get people to visit. Simply getting visitors to visit their site is not going to help them financially, and it would not get their food sold. Unless they use their site for online booking perhaps?

So, where there are similarities, there are also differences. Because a person selling something like an ebook, would not need to use TV or radio to sell their product. They would need to focus on online marketing instead.
This is shocking, to say the least. The link does work, and thanks for passing this along. I just can't believe that there are really people like this in the world.
Facebook for business thread

I think this is what you are looking for its is mostly discussion, but you can add your link there and others will exchange likes when they see it posted there.
Very scary mothers protesting. I read about this in the press. Good on them for standing up for their rights.

Although this might have been a positive one, I have found it can also work the other way. Did any of you ever watch the Channel 4 documentary "Attack of the Trip Advisors". I have also seen similar things on eBay where people are itching to complain about anything and everything and leave back reviews online.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned (jokes)

I can believe that people would do that though. I mean, if you think about it, anyone can take that negativity and change it into something positive. But it would only be for the cunning though. I don't think it would work for most.
How to increase Page Rank? 10th July 2012 8:45 AM
There are loads of resources here on MLF you could read through, also, we can't really help when we don't know what you've done so far.
Makes me really wonder what the misunderstanding was, and what exactly happened to the waitress. She should at least have apologized herself and not left the boss to go it alone.

Truth be told though, he did manage to turn the tables, giving away free coffee etc. and making that speech of his. That alone might do his business more good than bad I think.
I'm not sure why you can't do that.

I read through this post, and from what it says, you can add to circles and others can add your page to their circles.

Not sure if it would help, but here is the post: socialmedia examiner
It does, and with the many different kinds of businesses, sometimes one works better than the other depending on those businesses. I mean, someone that runs an online store would do better marketing online where most of their clients are meant to be, but will still be able to get some clients offline, its kinda more beneficial to work online than off.

I'm just thinking though. How badly would one of these mediums need to fail before you cut losses and focus on one medium.

I think you should use social media optimization such as face book fan page, twitter followers, linked in groups, Google plus business page which will help to generate traffic for website.Along with submitting your site in relevant directories.

How is that relevant to Google places?
Chrome overtakes IE globally 3rd July 2012 7:30 AM
Its no real surprise really. IE has never really been all that popular to begin with. From the start it was always bulky and slow and I can remember a few monumental crashes. Back then it was before I knew about other browsers. I switched to firefox, and then later moved on to Chrome, but with my laptop, chrome was too intensive, so tis back to firefox. I use it on my desktop as well, and only use chrome for a few things.
