Yahoo! will begin integrating Facebook’s news feed into its core services today, in a bid to position itself as the “largest social network” in the world, according to its UK chief.

The partnership with Facebook is a commercial one, but Mark Rabe, Yahoo!’s managing director of UK and Ireland, declined to give any financial details. Later this week, people around the world who use both Yahoo! properties, such as Mail, and Facebook, will be able to link their accounts and view and share updates with friends across both networks. Addtionally people who are creating content on Yahoo!-owned sites, such as the photo-sharing site Flickr, will be able to easily share these details with their Facebook network.

Sіnсе thеіr announcements аt F8 аbουt Open Graph Protocol (OGP), I’ve bееn following Facebook far more closely thаt I normally ԁο.  Whу? Frοm thе moment I watched thе videos аbουt whаt OGP ԁοеѕ, I knew thаt thе way thе internet works wіƖƖ bе changed forever.  Today I saw something thаt confirms thаt Facebook now controls thе internet. Nο, I’m nοt saying thаt tο bе sensational οr dramatic, I believe іt tο bе trυе…a shift hаѕ occurred wіth OGP thаt wіƖƖ forever change hοw brands аnԁ consumers interact, аnԁ Facebook owns іt аƖƖ.  Hοw ԁο I know? Bесаυѕе long time rival Google іѕ already embracing Facebook’s nеw protocol.

If you feel like you’d pay closer attention to the ongoing evolution of social sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, if only you had the time, this post is for you. The triumvirate of key social networks in the U.S. has been hard at work rolling out new features over the past month. Here’s the executive summary, with links to insightful blog posts about each innovation.

1. Promoted Tweets. Twitter stirred up a lot of media coverage a few weeks ago when it introduced its first serious attempt at generating revenue in the form of “Promoted Tweets”, which allow companies to sponsor their tweets so that they rise to the top of users’ searches. The program is currently available only to a test group of companies that includes Starbucks, Virgin America and Best Buy.

When it comes to Twitter and brands, consumers who are also Twitter users have plenty to say on the subject. We’ve interviewed a few folks, analyzed a couple of streams, and come up with ten common, recurring requests and complaints from users who’ve engaged with brands on Twitter.

You might have noticed a trend in more and more marketing, where large brands are featuring real people and actual employees in their ads. The end of the new Intel ads feature employees singing the well known "Intel bong" - the four note chime at the end of their ads. Best Buy uses their employees in their ads wearing their trademark blue polo shirts. The entire Domino's pizza new campaign about their revamped pizza is using real employees.
