		<title>Facebook APIs are Open &#8211; Except if your too big.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well my theory was right. Facebook blocked API access to Apple for an API that is normally open. This is what I said just a few hours ago: If you want to use them at SCALE or have a serious application (like Apple) these companies want you to execute custom terms of service to prevent [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2040&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Facebook and Ping &#8211; this is WHY we need an open social web.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Apple via Steve Jobs is saying that the terms of integration with Facebook were &#8216;onerous&#8217; so it was dropped at the last moment. We&#8217;re hearing reports of people who had access to a Facebook Connect feature in Ping earlier, which didn&#8217;t work, and has since been removed. So it looks like Apple really did pull [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2037&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Facebook can crawl you, but you can&#8217;t crawl facebook.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Facebook crawls your like button enabled web pages which can include FBML. Which is super cool of course. It&#8217;s cool that Facebook is crawling the web. When does Facebook scrape my Page? &#8220;Even if you specify a longer time, Facebook will scrape your page every 24 hours.&#8221; The user agent of the scraper is: &#8220;facebookexternalhit/1.1 [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2036&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Spamming Twitter for Fun and Profit.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This guys spams twitter with book recommendations: Two winters ago I left a position as a system administrator that was paying pretty well and moved cross-country to a region with less jobs than where I moved from. Three months later, I was still unemployed, broke, and bored. I was talking to my good friend Japhy [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2034&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>Influential users on Twitter.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Which Twitter users are influential? The algorithm described in the research is unique in that it incorporates what the authors call “passivity.”   The study found that a large majority of Twitter users act as passive information consumers and rarely forward (“retweet”) content to the network.  To become influential, users must not only catch the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2033&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>LinkedIn and Hadoop</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Interesting post about LinkedIn&#8217;s Data Infrastructure Much of LinkedIn&#8217;s important data is offline &#8211; it moves fairly slowly. So they use daily batch processing withHadoop as an important part of their calculations. For example, they pre-compute data for their &#8220;People You May Know&#8221; product this way, scoring 120 billion relationships per day in a mapreduce [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2030&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<title>On URL Redirection Services</title>
		<description><![CDATA[DeWitt writes a great post about the thread of URL redirection services like tinyurl and bit.ly. I am personally and professionally concerned about their emergence at scale and the negative impacts they could have on our ecosystem and it&#8217;s probably time I spoke up. More specifically, I&#8217;d like to touch on and expand on some [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=feedblog.org&amp;blog=848832&amp;post=2025&amp;subd=burtonator&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
