Future of Facebook, Twitter & Co

How important is facebook, twitter and co for a company?
Well, that is maybe the wrong question. For some brands within a company it might be great PR and name recognition. Selling a product is almost impossible, at least for the average local company. Fans want to be entertained, listen to little stories, read some short messages, find out about unbelievable things. And there they believe pretty much everything believable, - it is almost like on King Arthur's round table.
The first time in Facebook's life numbers are going back. Big time! Lost 6 million users in the USA last month, another 1,5 millions in Canada.
Are people getting tired of a hype that becomes commercialized? What can you do to make it a win for your company? One thing for sure: Try to entertain and use it as another communication outlet for your name and brands.
