Oops – Facebook accidentally blocks websites that use its own Open Graph Protocol

Thursday October 13, 2011, Matt Brian

Facebook appeared to be suffering from a bit of a headache this morning when it began blocking links related to its own Open Graph Protocol after users tried to share links on their profile or via a Page.

Whilst page recommendations and ‘Likes’ were still permitted, the sharing of a link manually seemed to be cause all sorts of issues on Facebook, bringing up the following error:

The content you’re trying to share includes a link that’s been blocked for being spammy or unsafe: http://ogp.me/ns

Google+ sees traffic and users climb

By: Gary Johnson | September 27, 2011

It’s only been a week since the once invitation only Google+, finally opened up to all comers to experience and enjoy the relativity new social network. The move has certainly worked as Google+ sees traffic and user numbers climb nicely. 

According to Digital Trends the sites traffic jumped a massive 1,269%, which gave it a spot in the top ten social networking sites. It may still be behind the likes of MySpace and Facebook, but new data from Experian Hitwise shows a lot of new users giving Google+ a try. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: ProductReviews

Facebook Forms Its Own Political Action Committee

Facebook filed paperwork with the Federal Election Committee Monday to form a Political Action Committee called FB PAC. "FB PAC will give our employees a way to make their voice heard in the political process by supporting candidates who share our goals of promoting the value of innovation to our economy while giving people the power to share and make the world more open and connected," said a spokesman to The Hill's Hillicon Valley blog. The FEC did not have FB PAC's information on its website as of Monday afternoon. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: HuffingtonPost

Nascuti la inceputul anilor 80 vedem acum in anul 2011 cum casa parintilor nostri este de 50 de ori mai scumpa decat atunci cand au cumparat-o si realizam ca noi o sa platim pentru casele noastre in jur de 50 de ani. Nu avem amintiri despre primii pasi pe luna, nici despre razboaie sangeroase, dar avem cultura generala, pentru ca asta insemna ceva o data. Suntem ultima generatie care a jucat "Ascunselea" , "Castel", "Ratele si vanatorii", "Tara, tara! Vrem ostasi", "Prinsea","Sticluta cu otrava", "Pac Pac", "Hotii si vardistii", ultimii care au strigat "Un doi trei la perete stai", ultimii care au folosit telefoanele cu fise, dar primii care am facut petreceri video (inchiriam un video si stateam sa ne uitam la filme 2 zile inchisi in casa), primii care am vazut desene animate color, primii care am renuntat la casete audio si le-am inlocuit cu CD-uri. Noi am purtat jeansi elastici, pantaloni evazati, geci de blugi de la turci, iar cine avea firme gen Lee sau Puma era deja lider de gasca. Noi am dat examene de Capacitate, nu am dat teste grile la admitere. La gradinita am invatat poezii in romaneste, nu in engleza...Si am cantat MULTI ANI TRAIASCA nu HAPPY BIRTHDAY la aniversari. Am sorbit din ochi Pasiuni,mai ales Sunset , chiar si Dallas .. si cine zice ca nu s-a uitat ori minte ori nu avea inca televizor. Reclamele de pe posturile straine ne innebuneau, si abia asteptam sa vina si la noi guma Turbo, sau pustile alea absolut superbe cu apa.Intre timp, ne consolam cu Tango cu vanilie si ciocolata si clasicele bidoane umplute cu apa de la robinet, care turnate in cap ne provocau pneumonii. Si uite un motiv bun sa nu mergem la scoala. Noi am ascultat si Metallica, si Ace of Base, si DJ Bobo, si Michael Jackson, si Backstreet Boys si Take That, si inca nu auzisem de manele singurele melodii de joc fiind horele la chefuri, la care nimeni nu stia pasii, dar toti dansam! Dar spre deosebire de copiii din ziua de azi, am auzit atat de Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Abba si de Queen, cat si de noile nume gen 50 Cent si Britney Spears. Am citit "Licurici", "Pif", Ciresarii, si am baut Cico si Zmeurata si ni s-a parut ceva extraordinar cand au aparut primele sucuri "de la TEC " fara sa ne fie teama ca "au prea multe E-uri", iar la scoala beam toata clasa dintr-o sticla de suc fara teama de virusi. Noi am baut prima Coca-Cola la sticla si am descoperit internetul. Noi nu ne dadeam bip-uri, ne fluieram sa iesim afara, noi nu aveam dolby surround system, taceam toti ca sa auzim actiunea filmului, nu aveam Nintendo sau Playstation ci jocuri tetris de care ne plictiseam la o luna dupa ce le cumparam si le uitam pe dulap, pline de praf. Abia asteptam la chefuri sa jucam "Fantanita", sau "Flori, fete sau baieti", sau "Adevar sau Provocare", sau orice ne dadea un pretext sa "pupam pe gura" pe cine "iubeam".. Noi suntem cei care inca au mai "cerut prietenia", care inca roseam la cuvantul "sex", care dadeam cu banul care sa intre in farmacie sa cumpere prezervative, pe care apoi sa le umplem cu apa si sa le aruncam in capul colegilor, care am completat mii de oracole, sperand ca persoana iubita va citi acolo unde scrie "De cine iti place?" ca ne place de el/ea. Este uimitor ca inca mai suntem in viata, pentru ca noi am mers cu bicicleta fara casca, genunchiere si cotiere, nu am avut scaune speciale in masini, nu am aruncat la gunoi bomboanele care ne cadeau din greseala pe jos, nu am avut pastile cu capac special sa nu fie desfacute de copii, nu ne-am spalat pe maini dupa ce ne-am jucat cu toti cainii si toate pisicile din cartier, nu am tinut cont de cate lipide si glucide mancam, parintii nostri nu au "child proof the house", ne-au trimis sa cumparam bere si vin de la alimentara, si cate un pachet de tigari de la tutungerie. Noi am auzit cum s-a tras la Revolutie , noi am fost martorii a trei schimbari de bancnote si monede, noi am ras la bancuri cu Bula, noi am fost primii care au auzit-o pe Andreea Esca la Pro TV , noi suntem cei care mai tinem minte emisiunea "Feriti-va de magarus". Suntem o generatie de invingatori, de visatori, de "first-timers" ... Daca citesti si ai cazut macar un pic pe ganduri, esti de-al nostru ! Trimite si la prietenii pe care poate i-ai uitat de mult, sa isi aduca aminte si ei!

By Patrick Goss

Facebook news: Charging for membership is untrue

By: Daniel Chubb | September 26, 2011

Today we see a massive increase in people looking for Facebook news, which is due to rumors that Facebook will be charging for membership thanks to some new features.

You can see in the images below, thanks to this article, that show some users claiming prices for Facebook’s new membership. The details seem very convincing, but hints come when they ask you to pass on the message, which is typical for a Facebook scam. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: ProductReviews

Facebook Timeline apps: The big applications coming to Europe

23 September 2011 10:03 GMT / By Stuart Miles

Facebook has announced that it is overhauling its profile pages, and in the process adding a host of new features for you to enjoy and share.

The biggest news out of the annual Facebook conference, F8, is Facebook Timeline, a media feed that not only gives your profile a pretty makeover, making it more magazine like, but giving you a visual representation of your life on Facebook so far. As Facebook calls it, your “Social graph”.

As part of the Timeline update, there will also be greater interaction with a number of apps, which will add detail to your stream in the form of new posts. That could include anything from listening to a certain music track, reading a certain story, or even viewing a painting on Facebook. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: PocketLint

Wednesday September 21, 2011, Courtney Boyd Myers

As we prepare for F8 tomorrow, all eyes are on Facebook. Recent changes have included a new subscribe/unsubscribe model, similar to Twitter, smarter friend lists, new status updates and Google+ style photos. Also, where’s the poke button?

Today, Arielle Zuckerberg, a Junior Product Manager at Wildfire Interactive, Inc. in the San Francisco Bay Area and the younger sister of Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg posted her own thoughts on the recent Facebook changes we’ve all been groaning about. And much to our surprise, they weren’t all positive.

Google+ opens doors, Facebook introduces more changes

Darren Allan - 
September 21, 2011

We’re sure it’s mere coincidence, of course, but Facebook has just implemented some more changes after Google+ has opened its doors to the public.

Google+, the search giant’s social network, officially went into open beta yesterday afternoon, so now anyone can sign up without an invite. There’s a doodle on the search home page this morning, too, to make sure no visitors miss this fact.

And even if Google+ has a huge mountain to climb in terms of catching up to Facebook’s 750 million plus users, Mark Zuckerberg isn’t taking the potential threat anything less than seriously. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: TechWatch

Spotify CEO Daniel Ek to speak at Facebook f8 conference

By Chris Smith

Facebook has announced that Spotify CEO Daniel Ek will speak at this week's f8 conference, which almost certainly means that a link-up between the two companies is imminent.

Ek will be part of panel chat called "The future of digital music" at the f8 event, which Facebook has traditionally used to announce new features and innovations.

This year is set to be about the addition of entertainment content, which could see movies, tv shows, newspapers and music come to the site through established content providers.

Speculation has been rife for most of 2011 that Spotify integration is coming to the social network as part of a Facebook Music service. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: TechRadar

Dwindling Google Plus activity: User abandonment?

By: Peter Chubb 

When Google+ aka Plus was first launched it was only open to a select few, then once others were allowed to join we had an unlimited number of invites to share. Now it seems that there is only a limited number of invites left (I have 150) and it is this that could spell disaster for the new project, as this has now had an effect on growth. Over the past few weeks we have noticed dwindling activity, which points to user abandonment.

When Google+ was first launched it was seen as something new and fresh, which is why it took no time to achieve 20 million users. The main reason was how slick it all was, and the fact that it had much more features to offer when compared to Facebook. However, it did not take long for the number one social network to implement some of these new features themselves. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: Product-Reviews

Finally Google+ open to all

By: Gary Johnson | September 20, 2011 

Earlier today we wondered if users were beginning to abandon Google’s new social network experiment, after it seemed that activity had dropped off recently. Now we can tell you that Finally Google+ open to all.

The new site had racked up around twenty million users since it started its invitation only trial, and now the search engine giant has opened it up to the public. The Guardian is reporting that this could be a big moment as the new kid on the block takes on Facebook and Twitter. It has a way to go before it can boast the same amount of users though, as Facebook has around 800 million users with Twitter over 100 million.

Google+ allows users to easily share content with only the friends they want too via its Circles feature. Content can be made public or just shared with one person, family, or close friends. It is varies from what Twitter can offer as well with users being able to share posts of unlimited length. READ THE FULL ARTICLE: Product-Reviews
