Title: Facebook : Mark as a top story
Post by: Rooftop on September 07, 2011, 04:59:58 PM
Not spotted this today and a search on G only brings up 2 results at the moment, so assume that it is new. However I seem to suddenly have an option on facebook to Mark as a top Story.

Seems like a nice option to test the abuse of!

am I going mad??

Can't see this option mentioned anywhere. I can only see it under IE not FF.  search on "mark as a top story" facebook (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q="mark+as+a+top+story"+facebook&oq="mark+as+a+top+story"+facebook) returns nothing. Same on twitter.

I don't usually use facebook in IE, so no idea how long it has been there.    grab attached.

I've been annoying everyone in the office.  Checked about 8 facebook accounts now and mine is the only one doing this.

Either I am being used as a guinea pig or I have fallen to the worlds most elaborate phishing scam.  I'm special.

I don't see Mark as top story on Chromium either.

Good thinking.  :D
