#12I'm not sure how I feel about content being tailored based on my social graph's likes. In some cases it could be good, in others not so much. My friends list on facebook has enough of people from my small town high school days thanks to our upcoming 10 year reunion, and believe me -- we have nothing in common. Maybe I'm being cynical but I loved the internet when you sought new and exciting things without the group t…

#13Already pinged one of my clients about integrating this into their online store. I think this looks awesome. What I think this will allow us to do: On each product page there will be a Like button (if you're logged into FB), which users will use accordingly. Then when a new user comes to the site they'll be able to browse all the products their friends have liked. Privacy concerns aside, this is going to be great for…

The algorithm would need to be pretty smart though, for example I have friends who I'd trust to the end's of the earth on everything except for music, we have violently different tastes and no ability to recommend music to each other.
