well for facebook..... Think about how they benefit small businesses.

Now pretty much every small business I know has a facebook page. Most of the one's I'm thinking of didn't have a webpage. Now they can reach their audience with give aways and draws.

More thank half of my wife's wall is company page postings. Before facebook, we'd never heard form these companies after we bought something from them because they lacked the technical sophistication or didn't think it was worth their time. Facebook small business pages have been a real boon to small businesses from my perspective.

As for cell phones, it's true that I don't visit new sites due to having a cell phone, but I do visit sites much more often now that I've got a cell phone with internet.

Now if I"ve got 10 free minutes I can check my espn fantasy hockey stats or read hacker news.
