How to get the URL or Link of a Facebook post or status
Sometimes you may need to provide the URL/link of a Facebook post or status for eg. in case you are trying to win a contest or trying to attract more people to a Facebook post. Though Facebook has recently added a “Share” option for all the Facebook post but it still doesn’t serve the purpose in the case you need the to share the Post in a comment or outside Facebook environment. In this post I’ll show you how to get the URL of a Facebook post.
All you have to do is to go to post and click on the “Date-Time” of the post. Something like this:
Clicking on this “Date-Time” element will take you to the post in a new tab. And from there you can simply copy past the URL of the post. Something like this:
Now you can share the post anywhere with the help of the URL. By the way the same method can be used in Google Plus as well.
Questions and suggestions are welcomed.

Google+: Now invite 150 of your friends in bulk
Google Plus is slowly expanding its user base. First it was available for only a handful of people. Then it allowed existing user to invite friends by sharing post with them. In an effort to ease the process of invitations, Google+ has recently allowed its users to send 150 invitations to people who are not using Google+. When you are at your “home” in Google+, look to the right side bar for “Invite friends”. It tells you how many invitations are you left with. Click on it to send invitations to your friends by email.
Send Bulk Invites:
Want your Facebook friend to join you on Google Plus? Definitely inviting them by email is a tedious task. For this reason, Google+ has provided another option: Invitation by link. It gives you a link which you can then share with your friends, share it on twitter, Facebook or mail them the link. People who click this link then are provided with an option of joining Google+.
I have share the link for bulk invite in this post: Get 150 Google+ (Google Plus) invite If you are still not using Google+ then you can try getting one invitation there. Enjoy

The recent buzz in the industry is Google+, the candidate to compete with ‘The ‘ (Is Google trying to avenge the murder of by Facebook :P). Social Networking Sites have evolved to a great extent and are a good source of information which can help in personalising the web experience (Google always pressed for the web experience to be person oriented). With the recent spat between Facebook and Google (remember the malign campaign against Goggle by Facebook PR company?) it was quite evident that Google will have its own way and the Google+ indeed seems to be an apt answer to Facebook. Google started the project step by step with Google , Google and now its in penultimate stage. If you want to find out more about Google+, here is a link to the demo:
As of now Google+ is available only to a handful of users but soon they will start rolling down the invitations. If you want to request an invitation go to this link:

Get a Google+ invite by subscribing to the blog:
So many people have requested for a Google+ invite but it is not possible for me to copy 300 mail address one by one and then invite them. An easier way is subscribe to this blog (This is not to promote my blog, once you get your invite you are free to unsubscribe from it). And then I can download the subscriber details in CSV format and add them to Google contacts and will invite them in bulk. I have just sent Google+ invite to 27 active subscriber of the blog. So if you want one, subscribe to the blog rather than adding a request in the comment box. Thank you.
Note:
I invite all the subscriber around 3 times a day. If you do not get the invite or not able to use the invite, its not because of me but Google. In any case, all the subscriber are invited in each round so there is no chance for anyone to be left behind. Like a good doctor I do my duty, the rest is in God’s (Google in the case) hand.
Update:
Google has blocked my Google+ profile for violating the terms and condition. I sent so many invitations that it irritated them. So much for my philanthropy work. It means I am no more allowed to send any invitation. I have created another profile to invite people but having trouble getting all my contacts on Google+.
People who earlier got Google+ invitation but were not allowed to join should check that old mail again and try again.
