How the Facebook Stole Christmas

Maybe you didn’t know this, but both my wife and I are on Facebook. Now let’s say I don’t know about Beacon. I buy her a Christmas gift from a Beacon-enabled online store, and guess what? She sees it next time she logs into her account.

There you have it: Christmas morning ruined. Thanks a lot, Zuckerman.

If you don’t want your loved ones peeking under the wrapping paper while browsing their News Feed, maybe you should consider installing Aaron Brazell’s Freakin’ Beacon Firefox extension. It’ll let you know when you’re on a Beacon-enabled site, so you can avoid it like the plague.

I’m Matt Mullenweg?

Matt Mullenweg

You are most like Matt Mullenweg!

You are most like Matt Mullenweg. Though you recognize your authority, you do not relish the idea of using your power too aggressively. Instead, you rely on peers a lot. You do participate in the social media world, but it is not something that occupies a lot of time. You most likey devote yourself to projects that you feel passionate about and tend to evangelize those things quite a bit.

Take the Technorati Self-Importance Test and compare your results to mine!

And Aaron, if you’re reading this… you need an easy way for people to “copy the code”! (Just doing my part as a Mullenwegish project evangelist!)
