O... M... G... Facebook Users Can't Login...

Check out this article: Facebook Wants to Be Your One True Login

Start by reading the comments...

Found by way of a Star Trek forum. Apparently (according to this post), people "logged" in to Facebook by searching Google for "Facebook login". For a while, the #1 result was the above article. So, people would arrive there and be confused as to how to login to Facebook...

So, never think that there isn't a market for newbies in any niche...

    What it shows is that very few people actually read anything!

    The paragraph right at the top of the page sort of gives it away:
    'Dear visitors from Google. This site is not Facebook. This is a website called ReadWriteWeb that reports on news about Facebook and other Internet services.'

    Yet all the comments are screaming 'why can't we just log-in?'

    Bonkers!!

      They added that paragraph after they started getting all the comments...

      Dan's content is irregularly read by handfuls of people. Join the elite few by reading his blog: dcrBlogs.com, following him on Twitter: dcrTweets.com or reading his fiction: dcrWrites.com but NOT by Clicking Here!

      Dan also writes content for hire, but you can't afford him anyway.

    when I type in "Facebook Login" into google, the #1 is Facebook website itself

    Why people do not click on this is beyond me

    Regards

    It's still bonkers. Hard to believe so many people didn't look at the website and just assumed that Facebook had changed so much that the log in link was hidden forever.
