Case in point, this weekend I tried to share a link to a story in The Guardian I found interesting. You’ll note (as I highlighted in a red box) even my browser recognized this was a link to the publication’s website, not Facebook.

However, due to how The Guardian has configured their site’s Facebook integration, anyone clicking the link is not taken to the expected URL. Instead a user is taken to this page to authorize use of The Guardian application.

Facebook is hijacking links to external websites of publications that have built social news apps on Facebook, and redirecting users to said internal Facebook apps. Ridiculous.

Fabio Erculiani is the man behind Sabayon Linux, a fantastic, rolling distribution based upon Gentoo (but much easier to manage). My thoughts on Sabayon are here. Fabio does a lot of different things on Sabayon, from the desktop to the server level. You have to appreciate a person that eats…
