To me, this seems to be a pretty big deal: Facebook is going to let advertisers REPUBLISH user posts

You will be updating your Facebook, doing product placements, and won’t even know it..

From the AP story:

NEW YORK (AP) — Facebook users who check in to a store or “like” a brand may soon find those actions re-transmitted on their friends’ pages as a “Sponsored Story” paid for by advertisers.

There is something really creepy about Facebook, and anyone who thinks about it knows it, even if you have a Facebook.

I have been steadily ending lots of updates on there and stopped publishing my Coal Speaker Tumblr feed on there too for fear of this very thing.. I may not matter or be a big deal to the masses of advertisers, but.. even if there’s a chance an advertiser would use me without concern is enough to make me want to quit Facebook altogether.

I learned something from the State of the Union (well, post State of the Union) As President Obama was signing autographs after his speech, I realized he is left-handed

From where Boehner sits

The 'veto of earmarks' seems to have been a laugh line for Biden
