"Frictionless sharing" - exploring the changes to Facebook, Martin Belam, Fumsi (Jan 3)
It's hard to stay on top of changes at Facebook. Is it helping people manage the flood of information or making it worse?
The issue is the Facebook "reading app" which news media outlets have been inserting which invite you to install when you want to read an article. These apps come with "seamless sharing" - or "frictionless sharing" that will post everything you read at that site to your Facebook stream
Martin Belam asks, "So what does that mean for the information professional?"
+ news sources should look into Facebook's uses the Open Graph metadata standard to display shared items
+ watch "audit trails"
