Comment on Facebook Patents the News Feed
If I’m reading the summary correctly, it’s about building this kind of list:
– Alice became a fan of Wonderland. [Become a fan of Wonderland]
– Bob just won an apple in the Halloween tournament. [Play Halloween]
– Carol is attending the Yadayada concert [RSVP]
– Dave and Ellie are now friends
– Frances joined the group, “I Hate Software Patents” [Join “I Hate Software Patents”]
– Greg commented on Hayden’s status. [Read comment]
Probably a key element in it is trying to make the list relevant enough to the user that they’ll want to click on the “Become a fan of…” or “Play…” or “RSVP…” links.
