Facebook is evolving into a real powerhouse tool to build both business and personal brands â€" fan pages, personal landing pages, live status updates, vanity URL's, facebook connect, facebook ads â€" all having their own way of promoting your personal brand to the world. And I'm sure it won't be long until they develop a live Facebook search feature similar to Twitter search.
