    Facebook now has 750 million users and reaches 43% of all Internet users worldwide, according to Alexa, up from 35% a year ago.


    Facebook now has 750 million users and reaches 43% of all Internet users worldwide, according to Alexa, up from 35% a year ago. Facebook now hosts perhaps 4 million fan pages, branded sites operated by companies, celebrities and enthusiasts.

    One of them is the President of the United States. Barack Obama's campaign website was attracting 8 million unique visitors per month as the 2008 election approached. This year Obama announced his reelection campaign on Facebook and has integrated Facebook's registration system into barackobama.com. "We may never see another [freestanding] campaign website that gets that kind of traffic," says Mindy Finn, a partner at social media advisory EngageDC. "All of that activity has just moved on to other platforms."

    Read and comment on this article on Jon Bruner's blog.

    The most common interaction between consumers and brands on Facebook is to either "like" a brand as a fan or "share" some piece of that brand's content such as a video or photo. The meaning of these gestures is ambiguous. Some users "like" a page in order to announce their affinity to friends; others respond to an incentive such as a free sample in exchange for publicly associating themselves with a brand. Once a user has "liked" a page, updates from that page show up in her Facebook news stream where her friends can see it, too--an important hook for viral marketing.

    Lots of marketing types have tried to peg the value of a Facebook fan. Their methods and estimates vary widely, reflecting the new-and-untested nature of Facebook marketing: Group-sales service ChompOn found that the average Facebook "share" led to $14 in sales at the company's website. Vitrue, a consultancy, figures that bringing a customer on as a fan is worth between 44 cents and $3.60 in increased sales from the engagement that Facebook encourages.

    Facebook has suggested that people who want to use Google Analytics or Omniture should use links on their Facebook pages to send visitors to sites where those services are installed and then analyze the traffic that results--sort of like watching shadows on a wall to figure out what's going on in the next room.

We are located in the historic town of Ducktown, Tennessee, just minutes from the Ocoee River and minutes for the North Georgia Mountains. Blue Ridge Georgia has become a destination place for many and is only 12 miles from out outpost. The Ocoee River is only 5 miles from our outpost, which means a short bus ride to the river put-in. We are an easy drive from interstates and major population centers of the South. We are only two hours north of Atlanta, two hours south of Knoxville, one hour east of Chattanooga, and three hours southwest of Asheville. Our location is only 3 miles from Georgia or North Carolina, so the mountains of Tennessee, Georgia and North Carolina can be viewed from the grounds of our newly remodeled outpost.

We have newly remodeled showers and changing facilities; and a retail shop as well as a picnic area if you choose to bring a lunch for before or after the trip.

    Neat 100+ year old cabin that was built before Lake Burton existed and was one of the first two leases offered by Ga Power.

    A Cabin’s Tale   Virtual Tour
    The Cabin of Lumbermen’s Retreat
    Lake Burton, Georgia
    I’m so very pleased to have an opportunity to tell you my story, so let me introduce myself. I’m an old log cabin in north Georgia, fortunate enough to have spent my years beside beautiful Lake Burton, nestled into the gentle folds of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I’m about 100 years old and there’s not a thing that’s square or level about me anymore; my floors slope, daylight streaks through cracks in my walls, my tin roof has been known to spring a leak, and without air conditionin’ I can get awful hot inside. Even so, I can see from the looks of newcomers that I still have some charm to those that have a love for old things like me.
    I’ve been loved and cared for by the Methvin-Jones family since 1921 – that’s 90 years and countin’! They’ve been awful good to me, but as we all know, life is nothing if not about change, and the season for my caretaking is turning. So, please indulge me with a bit of my story.
    There’ve been tales of who first put these timbers of mine together, who stacked the river stones of my fireplace and chimney, and exactly how long ago all that happened. Some said I was built just before the turn of the 20th century by Native Americans settled in these parts for awhile. I guess everyone has a right to go to the grave with a secret or two, so I’ll claim mine and let legend have its way.
    Secrets aside, it’s a sure thing that Mr. William F. Methvin, Sr. (“Mr. Billy”), a lumberman of Atlanta, Georgia, saw fit to set me up as a cabin for him and his lumbermen fishing buddies right about the time the Tallulah River was dammed up. Back about 1920, Georgia Power engineers decided the mountain folks of North Georgia needed more electricity so they started putting in dams and buying up most of the land along the river so they could turn around and lease lots out to private owners in order to pay for what they were doin’. Well, the water backed all the way up to a little town of Burton, Georgia, so they decided to name the topmost lake, Lake Burton, honorin’ the town and all those families that gave up their homes and businesses for progress.
    I’m quite proud to say that I sit on land that was one of the first 2 leases offered by Georgia Power. In 1921, Mr. Billy and nine of his lumbermen-buddies signed for the 3-acre lot I sit on. You can see now why the property got the name “Lumbermen’s Retreat.” The name stuck and I can see it was a good name, ‘cause everyone who has since been here has found a good bit of a retreat from whatever was creatin’ worry for ‘em at the time.
    I’ve seen things change a lot over the years. Back in the early days, Mr. Billy would take his Model T Ford over to Clayton and strap on a big ‘ole block of ice to bring back to keep food cold. And I’ve seen Mr. Billy’s children, grandchildren, and even his great-grandchildren learn to swim, ski, ride on inner tubes behind boats, shoot off fireworks in the back yard, and laugh till their sides hurt while playing card games on the front porch. There’ve been breakfast platters loaded down with eggs, bacon, and toast, followed by lunch fixin’s that’d make your mouth water just to think about! And if that weren’t enough, I’ve seen ‘em come back holding their bellies after eating family style fried chicken dinners at LaPrade’s or Laurel Lodge. One thing for sure, there’s been a lot of playin’, eatin,’ laughin’, and storytellin’ through all these years I’ve been witness to.
    But back to Mr. Billy and how things got to where they are now….
    Mr. Billy passed away in 1946, and his son, William F. Methvin, Jr. (“Uncle Billy”) took over his part of the lease ownership. Uncle Billy went on to buy out the rest of the lease owners in 1958. Uncle Billy and his wife, the beautiful Mary Blanche Hyde of Sparta, Georgia (“Aunt Mary Blanche”) took good care of me for over 30 years. They saw to it that I had “all the modern conveniences” added on. In plain language, they replaced the outhouse with indoor plumbing, added on a kitchen, plus a few more rooms. Well, that really did get me into the 20th century so I could enjoy a few more years of family living.
    While I was under their care, Uncle Billy and Aunt Mary Blanche were generous with me and shared me well with his sister, Jane Methvin Jones, her husband Tom, and their three children. Well, those Joneses took on a special affection for me – especially Miss Jane, who put her decoratin’ skills to work to give me some real charm. And, boy did she put Mr. Tom to work on all kinds of projects to fix me up. Mr. Tom could fix about near anything; and what he couldn’t fix, he would pass on to Mr. Perry Shook or his son, Len Shook, who’ve been seeing about me since the days of Mr. Billy, Sr. So, it was just natural that Uncle Billy and Aunt Mary Blanche gave me to “Mama Jane” and “Daddy Tom” after they passed.
    But truth is, the real part of my story is not so much about these worn out old timber-bones (they like to call me “rustic”), but the magnificent piece of land that I’ve been proud to stand on, right next to the purest lake water that God ever thought about. Now, there’s a story!!! I’ve been a grateful companion to this beautiful piece of God’s green earth, set beside the crystal clear water of Lake Burton. And even when my day is done, the story of the land I’m on and the water that comes up to it will live on. I’ve listened and heard ‘em tell of how that water’s as soft as a baby’s bottom and as clear as what you’d find in some faraway place near the equator. I’ve seen how that view of Charlie Mountain always gives some kinda comfort to the one lookin’. The dark nights show off the most brilliant star shine you’ve ever seen; and when the moon is full, well it just takes your breath away. And on some of those moon-lit nights, I’ve for sure seen some bare-bottoms out there in the water to go along with some of the silliest laughin’ you ever heard!
    Well, they say all good things come to an end, and I see it’s time for me to be handed on to the next family that’ll have me. I reckon they’ll be the ones to decide if there’s cause to keep me goin’ or just put me to my final rest. I see a lot of sad eyes lookin’ my way, but memories keep the love alive, and I’m just as grateful as I can be to have shared a piece of my history with Mr. Billy and his descendants for all these years. I may be replaced by some beautiful, new, elegant mansion, but I know I’ll never be forgotten by the ones that have tended to me for quite some time now. For them I have this message . . .memories of our time together, the view of Charlie Mountain, and the feel of that soft water, are right where you need ‘em. Just close your eyes, take a deep breath . . . . . and there it all is . . . . inside of you forever.
    And for the rest of you, if my story has some appeal to you, then maybe you could stop by and see if we might have an affection for each other!
    Humbly Yours,
    The Cabin of Lumbermen’s Retreat

    FROM THE OWNERS:
    We drove down the one lane road through a canopy of mountain laurel in bloom. We were almost hooked. And then we saw the view of the lake and the surrounding mountains from the old weathered deck, and I knew we had found our special slice of heaven. Sure, the old fishing cabin was small, but it had been kept spotless by the previous owner. With the comfortable furnishings and wood paneled walls, it was like stepping back into the 70ʼs. But we felt right at home. How wonderfully convenient it is to be able walk right into the house with only one step up.
     
    Less than a 2-hour trip from door to door made it for us easy to slip away for a day or a week. Our first project was to update the old one slip boat house, allowing us to host up to 25 people for a few July 4th celebrations. Anyone under 25 thinks it is a great place to sleep! Jumping off the top of the boat house has also become a favorite activity—even for the older folks.
     
    When we renovated the cabin, we wanted to preserve its homey, rustic feel. Keeping the original rafters exposed in the kitchen and bedroom has enabled us to retain that charm. More windows and doors were added to let in the natural light, wonderful views and nice breezes.
     
    Most of our time is spent on the back porch watching the boaters, skiers and wildlife. Lots of time spent rocking and watching the humming birds come faithfully to our feeders each year. It is the place we sit in the morning with coffee to wake up, to visit and tell tall tales and laugh with old friends, to eat meals, to watch kids and grandkids play, to glimpse an eagle or even a bear, and to finish the day with a cold beer or glass of wine as we see the last of the sun’s rays.
     
    We love sleeping under the breeze of the fans and the cool summer nights. We love the quiet and the sense of peace we find there. We love that whoever visits is just as mesmerized by this place as we are.
     
    Now we have children and grandchildren living out West who aren’t able to come as often to enjoy the lake with us, so we find ourselves spending more time with them during the summer months. The decision to let go of our piece of paradise does not come easy, but we hope another family will find the contentment and joy that our lake house has brought to us.

    Wolf Mountain Estates Murphy North Carolina

    http://tour.getmytour.com/public/vtour/display/2994?a=1 

    Welcome to Wolf Mountain Estates… a prestigious mountaintop community featuring home sites and acreage with breathtaking scenic views at up to 3,000 feet. Come and experience the peaceful, untouched beauty of the mountain and see why it is one of Western North Carolina’s most premier developments, and why it could be the next and last place you call “home.”

    Spectacular views abound throughout the development, from the stately blue and purple mountains to rushing streams flowing between towering hardwood trees. Wolf Mountain Estates is conveniently located just 20 minutes west of Murphy in the westernmost tip of North Carolina among some of the largest yet most secluded and untouched mountains in the southern Appalachians. Residents are able to relax in the quiet, peaceful surroundings, but are close to modern conveniences and outdoor activities including shopping, whitewater rafting, canoeing, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, horseback riding, theatres, racing, sightseeing and much more. From large, elegant homes and cozy cabin retreats to rolling creekfront lots and properties with views you won’t find anywhere else, Wolf Mountain Estates is an ideal place in which to invest or make your nest!

    Wolf Mountain Estates is a carefully planned mountain development. Unlike some subdivisions in the area, Wolf Mountain was meticulously designed to preserve the mountain’s natural beauty and secluded privacy while enhancing its existing features, including rolling pastures, creeks and streams, large rock formations, gentle ridges and of course, magnificent views. Passersby see only a few rooftops peeking out from among the ridgetop trees, not bulldozed terraces with dozens of look-alike homes. All lots are generously-sized to ensure privacy, ranging from no less than 1 acre to as large as 10+ acres. Most properties are easily accessed from a well-developed network of paved roads. In all, the development boasts more than 600 total acres, secluded and protected from over-development.

    Wolf Mountain was founded in 1988 by four Cherokee County natives. These men had a deep appreciation for the untarnished natural beauty found in the southern Appalachian Mountains. They had a vision to create a community that would reflect and protect the area’s God-given beauty. One of the men, Steve Crowe, owner/broker of Appalachian Land Company in Murphy, has been the primary catalyst in the excavating of the proposed roads and lot development. His intense love for the mountains and his own personal community, as well as his reputable construction and development skills, have been the motivation in making Wolf Mountain Estates a wonderful place to live and an asset to the region.
