Facebook wants to be the best alternative to LinkedIn
Facebook wants to be the best alternative to LinkedIn. Facebook wants to become the only platform you spend your time on. It swallowed Instagram, it swallowed WhatsApp, it’s strangling Twitter and it’s trying to strangle Snapchat. During the past year Facebook has gone into overdrive, blatantly, systematically and often successfully, cloning Snapchat's core features. Facebook has a voracious hunger. LinkedIn is next. (Of course, I am not talking about being bought). This is my prediction.
Facebook was 100% for friends and LinkedIn was 100% for business. That line has started to fade. It's normal. We are humans and we do business with people we like. People do business with people. People hire people - not resumes.
The foundation of beBee is an acceptance that we are people with passions and some of those passions are in our personal life, and some are in our professional, so we can create a hive for a conversation about any topic. There is a recognition the split is an artificial one. Deb🐝 Lange, Brand Ambassador @beBee
Business is becoming more social. beBee’s tone as a community is more informal. There’s less boundaries on impromptu engagement. beBee is more sociable and thus more powerful for networking. This change is being driven by a generation who grew up building relations on Facebook. beBee is great for building meaningful relations. Dedicated communities with loads of relevant content, packed with like-minded professionals to connect with.
LinkedIn Groups are dead. Killed by people who don’t understand engaged communities are built on giving, altruism and conversation rather than taking, self-interest and monologues. Here’s what you find in LinkedIn Groups today: irrelevant sales pitches from the same sketchy members over different groups.
Please remember that on beBee, your connections do not want to a direct sales pitch. Rather, your connections want to be informed and inspired by your article or story.
Building your personal and professional networks is essential in advancing growth. For individual employees, this can be a big step in advancing their career. For businesses, networks are important for leveraging their brand and recruiting top talent.
With an integrated personal and professional profile, you can connect with people based on shared hobbies, passions or interests. Not only does this help start the conversation, you may also find you develop a stronger, more successful business relationships by being able to bond over something outside of office talk.
You don't need to have a particular agenda, you don't need to sell anything to be on beBee, just enjoy "engaging dialogue" and writing/reading stories/articles on beBee !
Despite LinkedIn being the largest professional networking, there are other networking options like beBee to help you make meaningful connections. In fact, some of these alternatives may be more helpful than LinkedIn because they focus on creating more professional connections based on your personal and professional interests.
Empowering The Hives On beBee
beBee is empowering the Hives with quality and original content during the next days as I announced here : How Do We Innovate. It's going to be a network by far with the most quality content. We will upgrade the hives in beBee only with quality content, which is what everyone expects.
People on beBee have a different view, because it's not all about work. It's about helping and learning and teaching and supporting the people you are connected to.
beBee encourages people to get to know each other and develop business relationships from their personal relationships.
Personal connection speaks louder than any resume ever will. beBee understands that there's a lot more to you than just business. The idea behind beBee as a networking site is that your personal interests can lead to business opportunities. beBee enables you to form meaningful human connections on a personal and professional level.

FB is a cespol of right wing crackpots and disinformation and LinkedIn allows all sort of scammers and the r=same right wing crackpots and if in both sites, if you peak out they suspend posting privileges or summarily expelled yuo .beBee, well not many leaders want to be a bee and the distribution sucks. I rarely get read.

Well, in all fairness, FB tried to do that but failed. Perhaps it's because LI ended up being bought by Microsoft, or maybe it ended up being more like FB. Or maybe it's because FB betrayed its users by selling all their PII to advertising companies, blocking some of its content creators for ambiguous reasons, and for being out of touch with reality (lately quite literally with the development of an artificial reality that wants its users to migrate to). So, perhaps it was a combination of unexpected competition and sheer incompetence that FB failed and hopefully will eventually vanish altogether from the map of social media. One can only hope that beBee will fill that vacuum, at least partly…

HELLO BEES:
I wanted to have the email I also sent to https://twitter.com/PaulCroubalian for his help. I Know we have power here in numbers at beBee.
Any help is appreciated from bees here, advice you may have, my email atlantasupplychain@yahoo.com, phone: 1-404-750-3200.
==========================================================================================
Many folks told me you could help me with your contacts at linkedin and advice to get me back on linkedin. I own Savannah Supply Chain and sit on 4 nonprofit Boards in Georgia. Linkedin took me off and I need your help, advice what to do, I am in another appeal but they do not respond. See my last communication here below:
Please pass to the safety team:
I would like to appeal my restriction from LinkedIn. This is the only platform I trust and my business depends on this. I only share my own videos as I do to help jobseekers find jobs. I don’t understand how this breaks the terms of service so if you can help me understand and allow me to come back, I’ll be very careful to adhere to your TOS.
I’m not selling anything; I’m just passing along job openings. I have been a member for 16 years and I truly appreciate LinkedIn for its professionalism and truly need your help so I can keep my business going.
I ask that you please work with me on this.
Regards,
Bill Stankiewicz

Jaja, I am not worried, nor did I misunderstand the meaning of your intent. Social media tools can easily become double blade. However for tech savvy like me we know our ways around to get users life easier, thanks to opensource community. I help government agencies and National TV broadcasters in the educative mission to vulgarize software and web based technologies, including mobiles. The famous 3-5 minutes format showcase. FB can be tamed.lol

Continued PART 2 6) The MARKET will determine whether or not beBee SURVIVES. 7) I researched Snapchat for a month last year, via online articles and YouTube, to determine whetherke me could engage as a content marketer (predominantly video and graphics) before joining Snapchat early April 2016. I then spent a month following well known marketers to see how they were engaging the predominently 13-24 age group. I then started "doing my thing" and gradually built a substantial following (which is not a particularly easy thing on Snapchat) and "learned on the job" from savvy YOUNGSTERS, how to better engage. UNFORTUNATELY, I had to drop my Snapchat involvement early this year as as I felt I needed to devote more time, effort and resources to BEBEE. ***I hope I made the right decision*** Why do I say this? During my 10 months, actively using Snapchat (not an ambassador or investor in Snapchat) - I was asked to be a beta tester. - new or updated features were regularly realeased, generally for the better. - there were crashes and user issues but resolution processes worked well. - many users helped me when I stuffed things up and in turn I helped other users with their Snapchat issues. - this was enabled via PEER to PEER contact via TEXT, VOICE and real time VIDEO - ON MY PHONE on Snapchat. - Using the independent app Ghostcodes, I could guage the increasing user base of Snapchat users and also what other sopchat. (beBee is not an optional display on Ghostcodes)

Mamen \ud83d\udc1d Delgado don't do that, jajaja...there are many ways to limitate FB features invasions and countestrike by draining their audience to ours. I will show you how and the tools when you have time; In the meantime check this (taking advantage of FB to drain their audience to MybeBeeTV: https://www.facebook.com/groups/710567269127414 ) By the way, I am ready when you are for our September's interview we talk about long time ago. You just need a webcam + a laptop + send me your email or skype ID inbox so i can invite you to a Live streaming session. We will invcentive FB users worldwide to join beBee together.

I say .... Congress will do what hey have to do! And hope for the best. Javier \ud83d\udc1d beBee is right when warning about monopolystic position of Facebook. But in one other way, ecosystems are made of different species rights, what ever both actors are modeling as for their users experience it will remain in the all in one UI. And this is where they make a big mistake. Apps should be specialized and address a specific market segment. Mark my words.

I agree with David on many of his points here. Plus there is a huge change coming about with all social media directions with new parties coming to the table based on chats with hundreds of CEOs and business contacts I have. CNN Executives have been concerned with not growing their base with young folks, and the current audience is aging baby boomers that are dying off. Talking with Nester the other day, CNN paid $27 million for his blogging site and now Beme will be someone to watch. Many other similar companies coming online per my Apple and MIT contacts. We will see beBee here as one of those leaders. I am fortunate to work with everyone here to grow this Affinity application & am here to help 24 x 7. Anyone can call me at(404) 750-3200 for more help or support.

Here's another prediction, Javier, per the comment on FB fast becoming a monopoly: the U.S. Congress will ultimately regulate FB like a public utility (phone and electric companies). Perhaps this will set a global standard. Monopolies violate long-standing American corporate anti-trust laws. Moreover, let's not forget about the disturbing revelations -- and American disgust -- about FB knowingly selling political ads to Russian operatives for the purpose of unduly influencing the 2016 presidential election and causing civil unrest in the USA with fake accounts by purported black activists to stoke the flames of racial division. This will be the last straw for Congress to take stringent action to regulate FB. You heard it here first (I think). Thoughts anyone? stephan metral \ud83d\udc1d Innovative Brand Ambassador

beBee is not an alternative and i believe Javier \ud83d\udc1d beBee will concur. BeBee is a complete independent platform of communication (communicare in latin means "Put together"). Its success relies on people authencity (versus role players/pretenders), simplicity and affinities. After that you cannot control the way people are taking directions, which can of use they make with beBee. BeBee = freedom of use, no targeted compulsary business intent. If or when people do business thanks to beBee: YOU CAN ADD Return On Investment (of time) to the platform's benefit. beBee doesn't need to compete or compare to peers. because beBee is unique. Untill i onbard beBee, everyone from any groups of above mentionned social medias were pitching me lip gloss to bitcoins investment i didn't even care about. BeBee no one, zero individual did dare to annoy me with useless product and service pitch. Seems bees have ethics or greed-less.

Good point Robert Cormack. Headhunters, hiring whatever they can hype call themselves, they are already commodities in the recruitment business, and they know it. Sadly they give up one after another because paid on commission if the client wants isn't a decent business model. Jobs getting scarce, it is no longer about hiring or being hired, it is about paying a fair value before job done. All the rest is noise around a commitment process: employee (deliverables) employer (capacity to pay on the long term both loyalty and deliverables). Flexibility will works 2 ways more and more. LinkedIn, was that an obsolete attempt to make a lot of money making people they were important to +10K emplyers? That LinkedIn ? ;)

Oops ya Chas I know but I never really accepted that fact LOL it's like I still don't want to believe whose the President of the States. Thanks for correcting me :) Linkedin will stay but will be unable to get the engagement levels up like facebook, every person I dash into is scrolling the wall on Facebook or Instagram and if you bump into me I'm on beBee and Linkedin and now started my engagement on Instagram too. Now we just need every one of beBee to stay in action. We need to see that quality content and have some more features that will use beBee as a foundation to build on and reach/ link and draw the other audiences on the other platforms.

I agree with Chas \u270c\ufe0f Wyatt . I am tired of Facebook and go there occasionally only because some people can be contacted only on that platform. I don't think they'll completely do away with Instagram, Twitter, and snapchat but Linkedin is in trouble for the job market. I agree they have competition because I can find more candidates on Facebook than on LinkedIn. beBee is the best not only because beBee is empowering the hives but beBee empowers people as well. The golden rule is about helping, learning, teaching and supporting the people you are connected to. 100% that beBee enables you to form meaningful human connections on a personal and professional level. #beBeelove #beBeerocks :)

MybeBeeTV has turned into technologies at the service of the brand ambassador mission. It converts users to a new lifestyle . BeBee's.

Facebook relies on a business canvas with the base on the greatest common denominator. They professionalized promotion of your contents you can buy cheap $ and acquire extended outreach. Now why would you spend significant time on a platform, what is in it for you? LinkedIn failed, fails an will fail. You cannot escape you data facts by doing cosmetics changes and no interactive innovative feature that enhance UX. Change the game or die. That also apply to us Javier \ud83d\udc1d beBee.
