I’ve decided (consider this an official proclamation or something like that – ha) that Facebook needs to add a feature to pages. This item in particular has to do with photos and tagging.
You’ve heard time and time again that businesses/organizations should have pages, not profiles. That’s great and all, but if you don’t have a profile you in theory can’t tag people that are in pictures. Why? If you don’t have friends you can’t tag.
But… in the age of sharing, pages should be able to somehow tag people in pictures. If you’re worried about privacy, we could go a step further and require tags from pages to be approved by the person being tagged.
Why is this feature needed? There are plenty of reasons, but let me give you one simple example. If I load a video of my boss on to our Facebook page it would be nice to be able to tag him in the video… but I can’t because we aren’t friends on Facebook. He’s a good guy and all, but I don’t know that we should be Facebook friends. Get what I’m saying?
Have any thoughts on this or a good solution?
