Yeah, I find that twitter advertisements do little to sway me. However, there have been a few companies that have done really good marketing campaigns on Facebook. Usually the ones that are most enticing to me are the companies that offer a free coupon for becoming a fan of their Facebook page. I think that is pretty smart

I don't text. I don't care what the rest of the world is doing and I certainly don't want to advertise what I'm doing. If a company wants my business, put an RSS feed together. I don't need to look thousands of tweets scrolling off my screen, trying to make heads or tales of them. And those services that provide some kind of organization or consolidation, well, then, it's back to the future, isn't it. More useless duplication.

I am a fan of Star Trek on facebook. They posted a note about free t-shirts being sent to the first 500 fans who emailed their shirt size, name, and address. I did it on a whim and completely forgot about it. Then one day, I got a package from Paramount Pictures.....with a free t-shirt.

The only other company I am a fan of is USAA. Facebook gives me one stop shopping for information.

If I like a company, having a twitter/facebook account will neither turn me on or off towards that company. A tweet is similar to a commercial - some are annoying, and some are not. If the company practices good tweet-iquette, I think it can be really great - free - advertising for them.
