Facebook Login or: How I Plan to Get Tons of People Who Really Shouldn't Be Using Computers to Visit Our Website
How do you find your favorite websites?
If you are "computer-savvy," you probably enter the website's URL into your browser's address bar or find the website in your bookmarks and access the page directly.
If you have no idea what I'm talking about, you're probably the kind of person who just types "yahoo.com" into Google to get to Yahoo. This is called the "slow" way of doing it, not because it takes any longer time-wise, but because if that's the way you do it, you are "slow."
The site ReadWriteWeb found this out the hard way. An article they wrote about Facebook's login, caused their page to shoot towards the top of Google searches for "Facebook login" and suddenly the website started getting traffic from people looking to log into Facebook.
Nearly 400 comments later, people began to realize that ReadWriteWeb is not the best place to access their Facebook pages from, but not after the site had to post the above message letting people know that they are not on Facebook.
But I'm not above petty stunts, so I've titled this post "Facebook Login" and added tags for "Facebook login" in the hope that we can drive some of the computer illiterate crowd here to the Tosh.0 blog.
AREN'T YOU PISSED THAT TOSH.0 HAS TAKEN OVER THE FACEBOOK LOGIN PAGE?!?! WHY IS FACEBOOK MAKING ALL THESE CHANGES?!?! HOW ANNOYING!!!!!
