Facebook bans Google Plus!
New York, Jul 17: Finally after an undisputed journey for more than six
years, the world's largest social networking site Facebook met with a
serious competitor, Google Plus. With the announcement of Google+,
Facebook has been facing severe heat in the social network market. And
day by day, the war between the two counterparts is becoming nasty!
In a recent move to tackle the expansion of Google Plus, Facebook has
reportedly banned an advertisement that asked Facebook users to follow a
particular person in Google+. The web developer Michael Lee Johnson
alleged that Facebook banned his ad on Facebook, which asked people to
add him to their Circles on Google+.
"I recently ran a Google+ advertisement on Facebook that got all of my
campaigns suspended. – Great," Michael Lee Johnson wrote on his Google+
account.
Also, Johnson said that he got a message from Facebook saying that his
ad was suspended because it violated Facebook's "Terms of Use or
Advertising guidelines." Also, Facebook suspended his account and said
that it cannot provide him with the specific violations that have been
deemed abusive.
The alleged message from Facebook reads, "Your account has been
disabled. All of your adverts have been stopped and should not be run
again on the site under any circumstances. Generally, we disable an
account if too many of its adverts violate our Terms of Use or
Advertising guidelines. Unfortunately we cannot provide you with the
specific violations that have been deemed abusive. Please review our
Terms of Use and Advertising guidelines if you have any further
questions."
It's interesting to see the World War between Facebook and Google Plus.
Though Google+ is still in field trial stage, it manged to grab more
than 10 million users in two weeks. Moreover, 'How to get a Google+
Invite' is still a hot topic in Twitter and Facebook!
Anyhow, it's expected that another giant is also set to dive into the
social networking market. According to rumour mills report, software
giant Microsoft is also working on a secret project to launch a social
networking site called Tulalip. So, it seems to be a never-ending war.
