While we wait for Facebook to send us our decal, we decided to create our own digital version of the decal being sent out to local businesses. As you can see, we added our SMS notification service to the decal. If you would like to receive text alerts about Islam, Muslims and all the halalness of IslamCrunch, please sign up for SMS list – http://www.textmarks.com/MUSLIM

From what we can tell, IslamCrunch appears to be one of the first Islamic-themed sites to implement the Facebook like button. Try it out, click the thumb, join the Open Graph.

“What is RT?” is a common question asked by friends and family who have not seen the social media light. RT = retweet. Retweet = reposting a tweet (Twitter message) you found on Twitter.
Recently, Twitter released a new beta feature for retweeting from their web interface. Initially, retweeting had to be done manually. Adding the “RT” then copying the username (not forgetting the @ symbol) and then copying the tweet. Soon after, third party applications like CoTweet and HootSuite integrated the retweet feature into their platforms.
Interestingly, one of our lesser known Twitter accounts (@sumikael) was selected for the beta feature.
Here are the screenshots of the retweet feature.
