Don't 'UNLIKE' us!

When people hear 'social media' they are most likely to think about either updating their Facebook status, or tweeting or posting something to their Google Buzz or Google Plus. Professionals may think about LinkedIn or BraveNewTalent. But what do you use it for?

Most people use social networking sites to stay connected to the rest of the world. This is done by staying connected to friends and family, as well as connecting to groups/pages/lists that are of personal interest to people.

This becomes problematic at times. People may want to help out or get updates, but how many of you really want those updates to be the only thing on your wall? When visiting Facebook, if you find too many updates from a page, what do you do?

Most people simply 'UNLIKE' the page or maybe just Hide the page. But that means you get disconnected from that page.

So what is the solution then?

It is the responsibility of the page to post content in moderation. NOAH is an attempt at using social network to connect people who are working for or with animals/birds together. But I do not want people to start blocking our posts, that is why I ensure that I do not spam you with posts 24/7! I understand that you need space on your page for posts from friends and family.

I would however, encourage followers to upload and share images and videos that are related to animals on our page. There may be someone visiting the page who might be able to make good use of the post.
