Here’s some great info about changing your business name on Facebook!
Tellem Grody Public Relations - Los Angeles, CA
(April 11, 2012) Thanks to reader Linda Waterhouse (@llwaterhouse) for bringing this to our attention — the link we provided below (cough, name change solution, cough) is no longer active on Facebook. Here is the new way to petition for a Facebook page name change:
- Log into Facebook
- Visit the page you’d like to rename
- Open the Admin panel (top right) if it isn’t already open
- Find Manage on the drop down, click it and select edit page
- Look at the left sidebar and click on basic information
- Next, you should see the current name of your page listed
- Look for a live, blue, hyperlink that says request change
- Click it and follow Facebook’s directions carefully. You should be on your way to success!

iFail
November 16, 2010At long last, today is finally here. I will never forget today, because something unbelievable happened.
Did aliens finally arrive on Earth? Have scientists discovered a cure for cancer? Is there evidence proving, or disproving, the existence of God?
No, the Beatles are on iTunes. This, my friends, was Apple’s big announcement, the thing they promised that would make today the day I never forget.
I’m not sure if I have anything to say here. This is so pathetic, such a monumental flop, such a marketing fail of Appleian proportions that I fear saying anything at all would validate Apple and make them continue doing stupid stuff like this. If this isn’t an iFail I don’t know what is.
This does leave me with a philosophical question: if Steve Jobs makes a sound in the forest with everybody around to hear it, will anyone care?
Here We Go Again — More Hype From Apple
November 15, 2010Today I discovered that tomorrow will be a day I will never forget. Like, ever. How could I possibly know that I will never forget tomorrow when tomorrow isn’t even today yet? Because Steve Jobs told me so!
Clearly, Apple has not learned anything about overhyping their stuff: the iPad was mockingly compared to the Ten Commandments (no, seriously), the iPhone4 turned into an iFail before it was discovered to have problems, er, making phone calls, and so forth.
I can’t believe I have to tell this to an adult, but here it goes.
Dearest Steve Jobs: have you ever read The Boy Who Cried Wolf? Yes? Well, re-read it on your iPad or whatever. You are that boy, and I don’t care about your wolves. Your announcements do not resonate with me forever, other than in mockery or contempt. Additionally, I don’t like being told about things I’m supposed to remember by anybody, much less some corporate brand.
I’ve had many experiences which I will never forget. There was the time I was nearly run over by a giant pig. (No, seriously.) I remember the first time I set foot on African soil. And there are far more personal memories which I will not share on this blog. Of all my memories, both good and bad, none of them involved Apple or any kind of corporate announcement. Like, ever.
So ease off the rhetoric a little, yeah? You’re starting to give me a rash.
