Goodluck

Even though this story is over a month old, it's still a pretty awesome one. We all know how everyone uses Facebook from updating our status to writing on a friend's wall. Well, Nigeria's president, Goodluck Jonathan, has a Facebook profile. He's always updating his status or writing notes. He used the site to announce his candidacy for president to more than 240,000 "friends." Here is his link to his page, for as of Nov 1, has reached more than 300,000 "friends." Lastly, how awesome is his first name, Goodluck.

  2. This is awesome. To be honest, I am in no way technologically savvy. I struggle with facebook and don't have a twitter, but that is by choice. I do know though most of the world is on board with these social networking empires. I think Goodluck made a very strategic option to announce his candidacy for president on facebook. People find that creative and relatable. Plus it is a great way to reach out to mass amount of people. Props to him!
