Facebook Makes Open Graph Objects More Viral

Does it look like Facebook is repeating itself when asking whether you like things appearing in status update feeds? The social network’s open graph protocol has gotten the “like” treatment, as Inside Facebook first reported. If you’ve got open graph objects enabled in your feed, you’ll see immediately to the right of the “like” link another one saying “like this link.”

Writing snobs might call this addition redundant, and those who aren’t well versed in the protocol might compare the feature to the Marx Brothers routine “Who’s On First.”
