    If Facebook is doing OpenID (which I thought was the plan) then attempts to log on elsewhere with your Facebook OpenID should take you back to a facebook server for the actual login process (and if they do it right there will be various ways to confirm this)....


    Oh, wait, we are talking about Facebook?


    Nevermind.

    Oh hell. So because of this spammers might be able to comment?!? This is what happens when you have too much deregulation. Or something.

    (If you got taken in, don't feel bad - so did notorious social media fameball Rex Sorgatz!)


    Wouldn't that make a person (a sensible person) feel even worse?

    2008: The year the witty username died.


    I hope this generates revenue for you somehow (it's really the only reason I can think of that you would attempt it in the first place), but I don't see much good coming from this. I see a landscape covered with piles of hot mess. But, good luck or whatever...

    All's I know is I'm going out for some Hibachi dinner and when I get back there sure as shit better not a SNFF going on in this here thread or I'm gonna be pissed. So pack it up and take it over to the Executions thread (sniffle) or the Commies or the crazy-ass thread about Boy George as Man Bear Pig. I don't care. Just not in here.

    Hey, can we also get that feature that tells us if someone has replied to our comments? It's a vanity but heck,Flickr has it so why can't we? Anyways, my two cents.

    This might become entertaining when people start making up fake Facebook accounts of other people, like some of our favorite fameballs.


    There's no limit to the number of Julia Allisons on FB. Have at it.
