Today's business world is tough and awfully competitive. So when it comes to Facebook we have a perfect opportunity to spy on our rival businesses and to flat out steal their posts. We can use their posts against them, see how they are running their social media campaigns and find out what they are up to! This is prefect! It's just like finding the other team's play book the night before the big game.
There is even a great way to protect yourself from others seeing what you're up to on Facebook. As Buzz Bishop of cyberbuzz points out, if you create a fake page you can follow all your competitors without them seeing that you are following them.
And I guess in some ways I can see the point. Because of Facebook's referral ads, there is a chance that suddenly there will be a post on someone's wall saying that your page Likes your competition's page. Facebook has basically advertised your competition directly to your fans.
And that is just horrible!
Except that it really isn't.
