The document discusses Facebook's Open Graph and how it is changing how brands engage with customers online. Some key points: 1) Previously in 2009, brands had to split their online presence between Facebook and their own websites, but Open Graph allows them to have conversations and distribute content in one place through Facebook. 2) Open Graph utilizes Facebook's existing social network and notifications to help brands attract temporary high interest that can potentially be converted into more permanent relationships. 3) This affects the traditional consumer purchase process by allowing brands to inspire awareness, interest, desire, and advocacy through Facebook interactions at different stages.
