Be careful what you like...



Facebook recently announced a new functionality of their popular "Like" button. Previously, the button would only add a small link on your wall and newsfeed, but now it will post a full story with a headline, blurb and thumbnail. Facebook says this will help drive people to the pages people like, but I think this may cause Facebook users to stop using the like button. I think it is interesting how Facebook is looking at adding more content, when there are things out there like twitter that value concise messages. As an avid twitter user, I'm pretty sure I am going to find these extensive posts irritating. If you can't give it to me in 140 characters or less, it better be extremely interesting.
