Facebook stoops to a new low in revenue raising

Update: False alarm folks. Carry on. Apparently it relates to a spam bug in Facebook Pages. Content below is left as a historical reference as to why I should not go off half cocked.

Facebook have done it again. In its attempts to make itself a quick buck it has run roughshod over its users. This time it isn’t about privacy concerns or about claiming in ads that people have used features which they haven’t. This time they are adding links to pages which the page admins have not added and cannot remove.

I wanted to let you know that you can find me on tumblr. I use it for reblogging things that I find and like or for short bits and bobs that don’t make sense as a full blown blog post.

Natalie, who also happens to be my wife/partner in crime/better half, is an amazing artist who also runs her own blog. She has been blogging for the last three or four years now, and over the time she has had more and more readers come to her blog. There are times when I notice that she isn’t so enthusiastic about blogging, perhaps when she has a lot of work on or when she is a bit run down. Yet she still keeps at it.
