Will Google be more interesting for brands than Facebook?

A few folks have been sniggering about the fact that, yeah, there is a difference between google and facebook. Facebook’s ongoing privacy concerns aside, Google just has more of your stuff and has had track record that isn’t exactly spick and span in the consumer advocacy area.

It would seem that with this fact of much more potential consumer data, brands would love to get in bed with Google. As a result, it makes sense that our community is making first suggestions on how Google could do this. Of course, this is all assuming that privacy right outrages will all be mastered swimmingly well, and Google doesn’t yet again tank this x-th attempt at becoming more social, and Facebook doesn’t succeed in replicating some of the Google advantages.

Check out Sean Percival’s proposal for a Google brand page layout. He also explains some of the unique advantages Google+ could offer.

Tyrannybook (Amnesty International)

Our colleagues in Portugal had a great idea for Amnesty: Why not make a social network where people can watch Tyrants, Dictators and other scum? Simple, cheap and and effective.

Tyrannybook.com launched and immediately was down because of the response of so many liking the idea. Hopefully the site has been moved to a more powerful server by now.
