$100 to Message Mark Zuckerberg

Sending a private message to someone can cost anywhere from $1 to $100
– if you're sending to someone like Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, that
is. "We are testing some extreme price points to see what works to
filter spam," said a Facebook spokeswoman. Facebook introduced "paid
messages," a feature where users pay a $1 fee to have their private
message sent to an individual's "strict filtering inbox" instead of an
obscure "other" inbox. Before the change, Facebook users were allowed
to send a private message free to someone they didn't know or weren't
connected with. "Several commentators and researchers have noted that
imposing a financial cost on the sender may be the most effective way
to discourage unwanted messages and facilitate delivery of messages
that are relevant and useful," Facebook said in a Dec. 20 statement.
the $100 private message offer is an experiment not just with
Zuckerberg but to those with a significant number of subscribers.
Remember, subscribers are people who aren't your friends but can view
the content you share with them because they follow you.
