An Update from BJ Fogg

Yesterday, I discussed the work of BJ Fogg, a social media guy at Stanford, and I said I could not find the pricing for his 6-week Facebook course. Turns outs there was a reason I couldn’t find that information. Here’s an email I received from him this morning:

FYI — To date. I’ve not received a dime for teaching parents about Facebook at Stanford.

This was a public service. And the parents were grateful.

While I still get annoyed by social media gurus and the hype surrounding social media, the fact that Fogg doesn’t charge for his class makes the whole thing a lot more tolerable.
