@Owen - Since McClure doesn't have time these days running all those conferences to defend Beacon - I stepped up with a McClure-esque post essentially outlining the reasons why Beacon will in the end be a huge hit and was a natural extension of their news feed strategy. The beauty of the news feed is that it automatically projects behaviors and as much as i like to see that Owen got poked by McClure, I think it will be much more interesting to see what wine you purchased to bring to Rafer's next dinner party.

@Figaro: LOL.

You're still pretty generous with that remaining 5 billion there.

Facebook's valuation just dropped 10 billion.

So other sites are still going to send their information to Facebook, who will still be able to collect all that information about me without my consent or even me knowing, but they'll no longer show it to my friends? Sounds like a hollow victory to me.

I still don't see an apology.
