Some Facebook users are just funny.

ReadWriteWeb posted an article about Facebook Connect and now it can be found on Google top search with "Facebook login". Site has got lot of visitors who think ReadWriteWeb is just another Facebook re-design.

Quote from mattstratton.com:

Yes. Here’s what these rocket scientists did:

1) To log into Facebook, instead of going to http://facebook.com in their browser’s address bar (or maybe, heaven forbid, use a bookmark), these Facebook users simply do a Google search for “facebook login” EVERY TIME THEY WANT TO GO ON FACEBOOK.

2) They ended up clicking on the RWW link in the results (which makes little sense, as even though it was a top 5 hit, it was never #1)

3) They simply see the Facebook Connect button and assume that “logs them into teh Facebooks”

4) They log in and think that the ReadWriteWeb site is “the new Facebook”. And get all pissed off.

5) Hilarity ensues.

Hah.

Automation Labs FaceBook Block: Just Another FB Scam

If you stumbled with status requiring blocking "Automation Labs.", it is a scam. You can enter on search field any keyword and something to block will pop up. More info:

So another Facebook hoax and probably there will be new ones coming... please, think twice before passing these to your Facebook friends. Your stupidity is the sugar for hoaxes to spread around the world.

Facebook UnNamed App is not a spybot.

If you are deleting UnNamed Application based on info spreading on Facebook... you are just falling on virally spreading Facebook rumour. UnNamed Application is only taking care of your Boxes tab.

If you are not using Boxes tab, no harm done, but if you were using it, you probably want to know how to get it back.

to put back your boxes tab:

1. go back to the page where you removed the Unnamed App from.
2. select "edit settings" for an app under the "added profile boxes" section
3. click remove, then click add when it appears.
