We’ve just watched The Social Network on DVD (ok so a year or two behind here in the Mountains!)…now we’re ruminating on what it all means.
Is Facebook your social network? Apparently, 1 in every 13 people on Earth is on Facebook and would you believe that Australians, at 7 hours on average, spend more time per month on Facebook than any other nationality. To show how seriously we take it, Court notices and summons sent through Facebook are legal and binding in Australia. Facebook even has its own associated mental disorder – FAD - Facebook Addiction Disorder.
Lots of reasons to like it and plenty to lump it too! From connecting with old friends, keeping up to date with our favourite businesses, raising awareness for topical issues (think the power of the recent Live Export Animal Australia campaign!) to the dangers of cyber bullying, Facebook is really an electronic reflection of our society. For Gingerbread Folk, Facebook connects us with our customers who share their comments and photos. Our gingerbread house customers post their creations and our brides post their wedding shots.
This week we are running a competition on Facebook…Find our cheeky gingerbread man hidden somewhere on our website to WIN. You could be one of the first to experience the prize of our new Gingerbread Tree Kit.
Once you’ve located the gingerbread man, head to our Facebook page. You need to Like our page to enter. Email us at info@gingerbreadfolk.com with your name, address and answer. Remember - don't reveal the location on our wall.
Correct answers will receive 1 entry into the competition. Share our page with your friends to receive an extra entry. Entries open Tuesday 5th of July at 9am and close Tuesday the 12th of July at 11:59pm. The winner will be announced via facebook at 9am Wednesday the 13th of July. 
Here’s the little guy to look out for! Good luck and happy hunting!
