We’re in a Facebook frenzy this week, so brace yourself.

First, Dave tells us about his friend Mari (@MariSmith) who recently discovered that her Facebook privacy settings were causing her some problems. She sent out a tweet about the situation, which involved some trolls she’d blocked from her personal profile making comments on a Fan page she manages. Because she had them blocked from her individual privacy dashboard, she wasn’t able to see them trolling on the Fan page and had to be alerted by another user who could see the comments. It’s an odd loophole and certainly not the only one in the Swiss cheese of Facebook settings.

Continuing on our Facebook tangent, we talk about the upcoming jargon changes that will have users “liking” businesses or products that have Fan pages as opposed to becoming fans of them. Some studies suggest it will be better for businesses, but those studies are based on the likelihood of a user to “like” something within Facebook as the function currently exists. Once it means something else, those numbers will probably dwindle.

We chat for a minute about Memphis’ recent application to become a Google Fiber city — more than 1,100 communities applied. If the city were selected, Dave suggested it would be a great opportunity for business community to upgrade their own machines and give older computers to families who may be without.

Our guest this week is Justin McGregor, the webmaster at Southwest Tennessee Community College. Like many of our guests that title doesn’t really do him justice; he’s a renaissance man who wears about a million hats for the college.

He talks to us about his work with social in promoting the college and connecting students, which mostly finds him on Facebook and YouTube. (With just a little bit of Twitter thrown into the mix.) He discusses cross-platform uses for content, event promotion and coverage and the ins and outs of Southwest’s Web 2.0 strategy. We also picked his brain on the Facebook changes, and his recent decision to draw more distinction between his audiences on Twitter and Facebook.

You can meet Justin at TribeCamp on April 24 at Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering. He’ll be presenting on digital photography and something else from his bag of tricks and talents yet to be determined. If you’re interested in speaking (or attending) TribeCamp, head over to TribeCamp.com to register and take advantage of our early bird discount and give us a shout with your presentation ideas.
