When is a website not a website?

When it’s your brand, of course.

Eh?

Let me explain myself.  I was lying in bed a couple of nights back trying to think about the content of a piece  I’m writing for the ever excellent B2B Marketing magazine about trends and developments in 2012.  By the end of my ruminations, I’d hit on upon an idea (I won’t spoil it by telling you what it is here) that was passable, and several that weren’t.  However, one idea stuck with me, and whilst not relevant to the article in question, it did warrant further consideration.

Quit complaining, peanut.

There’s been a lot of moral indignation recently about the changes Facebook’s been making to their GUI (Graphic User Interface to the uninitiated).  Functionality keeps being added, removed, tweaked and moved around on the screen and Facebook users are out on mass having a good grumble about how it’s not like it used to be in the good old days (last month?).  Now. Ignoring the fact that these same users voice these same concerns everytime Facebook make a change.  I feel I have to point out a rather unpalatable fact to my Facebook chums.  Sorry guys. Get over it. We’re peanuts.
