Thank Facebook for the Dumeril’s article.
Whether you are one of the legions of people who are addicted to Facebook or one who steadfastly refuses to jump onboard the Facebook bandwagon (or become a Facebook zombie, as some may say), there’s no denying that the social networking site is influencing not just people’s personal lives, but also business in a far-reaching way.
I noodle around with three Facebook pages: my own personal page, my “Russ Case, Editor of REPTILES” page, and I also moderate the REPTILES magazine Facebook page. I spend most of my time on the latter. It’s a great avenue for interacting with reptile hobbyists of all ages. It’s fun, and I even give away free subscriptions, books and other prizes — all the Facebook fans seem to like that!
In regard to the Dumeril’s boa article, we had been searching for a breeder to write one for quite some time. It was a species for which we had received a number of article requests, but for some reason we were unlucky in finding an author. Then I came upon Pat Higdon, who was one of our Facebook fans, and I learned that he was breeding Dumeril’s boas. One thing led to another, and at long last we’ve got a new article about these popular boas — and all thanks to Facebook!
