The Facebook Like Button: Not Working Right Now

This blog has never been in the business of scoops. But I just might have bumped into one.

For two articles in a row the Facebook Like button is not working for me. First I thought maybe I am not signed into Facebook. Not so. I was signed in. Then I thought maybe it is just on one site. But when it happened for two articles on two different sites I figured I had come across something. And I am sure others have noted and reported. But I just wanted to throw it in as well.

Facebook being a site that has never had a fail whale.

Twitter’s Pitch Deck for Big Advertisers

I never doubted Twitter was going to make money, lots of it. It is a new platform that offers potentially deep engagement. There are so many data collection points. There is atomic level penetration. It is so appealing. But I guess it takes a Dick Costolo to pull it off. The guy is hard nosed about it.
