I would say that the say I'm in the Facebook and MySpace demographic age group. I"m 24 and I have been on Facebook and MySpace since college. Our company has also considered creating a Facebook page. Speaking in general terms but I would say that people in my generation are not affected by advertisement. We have been bombarded with ads on the internet since we can remember and either ignore them completely or avoid them. I can't think of one person that would click on a flashing internet banner that said I was the 1000th whatever and there is no way I would ever click on anything that said "Free". I believe that if a social networking page on Facebook or Myspace is even PERCIEVED as a marketing campaign it will fail. No one I know trusts anything a marketing piece says. You have to make it a resource. The problem with social pages and groups is that you have to constantly be updating or adding information. If a group has not been updated in one or two weeks... I considered it a dead group. The problem is that when a page like this is used a resource it is very difficult to determine how the page effects your bottom line considering the time that it takes to properly maintain. I wonder when the last time any of the above MySpace pages where updated.
