All Facebook : How To Hack Facebook Profile Backgrounds

@Nichole, read the article and you'll see the reference to the fact that this only shows up for people who also download the same browser extension. That's not a violation of the TOS, it's a layer over Facebook. It's always best to peruse the article in full before commenting.

All Facebook : Does Facebook's Advertising Team Hate Google Plus?

Sat, 23 Jul 2011 01:02:01 +0000

Of course you do. If you didn't, you wouldn't have attempted to buy the ad in the first place, nor made a such a fuss about it once Facebook bounced your posting attempt. Had you previously read the site's rules and deliberately tried to flout them to maximize the attention you'd get? And how much business have you gotten as a result of all this? Thanks for commenting. :)

Thanks for the update, RoseJMort. None of these are rollouts -- they are only tests. As such, it's a matter of when we notice them. That said, you're clearly on an earlier test cycle than we are, so we appreciate hearing from you on this. Please keep us posted.

All Facebook : Facebook Moves To Claim 21 Squatted Domains

Fri, 25 Mar 2011 22:42:38 +0000

@Tom and @Dean, please reread paragraphs five and six. AllFacebook.com is not a squatter. Facebook obviously considers us helpful to the company's brand. If the social network had a negative opinion of our blog, we would have had to cease and desist a long time ago. Our blog has been around since spring of 2007, and we communicate with spokespeople for Facebook on an almost daily basis.

All Facebook : Facebook Expands Relationship Status Options

Fri, 18 Feb 2011 15:26:46 +0000

I'm commenting on my own post here, just to reflect on all the media coverage of this change. A lot of people are oversimplying things by saying that Facebook has added LGBT situations to relationship statuses, and I just don't agree that civil unions and domestic partnerships amount to the full spectrum of nonheterosexual dating scenarios. I get to say that because I'm in the B-labeled part of the demographic alluded to by that acronym above. I think the two additions make a great first step, but would love to see more options under "it's complicated" and "open relationship." I don't think expanding the relationship status menus will do much to combat homophobia on Facebook, either. People who are 'phobic typically don't have friends who are in civil unions nor domestic partnerships, so unless the social network starts publishing statistics on how many profiles have those designations, the 'phobes won't see these alternative relationships on the site.

All Facebook : FarmVille For Dummies: Everything You Need To Know About The Simplest Game Ever

The "Dummies" books are one of the most formulaic imprints in the publishing world, so one would think Wiley could've found a way to come out with the FarmVille title while the number of people playing the game was still rising.
