A case of mistaken identity or ingenious SEO -- you decide. Trade publication ReadWriteWeb posted a story Thursday morning entitled "Facebook Wants to Be Your One True Login," which detailed the
social network's deal with AOL to integrate users' Facebook friends into their AOL Instant Messenger. As a result, an untold number of Google users searching for "Facebook" and "login," were presented
with -- and consequently followed -- a link to the ReadWriteWeb story.
Unable to locate a Facebook login bar on ReadWriteWeb's story page, all hell broke loose. Remarked one visitor in the
post's comments sections: "I WANT THE OLD FAFEBOOK BACK THIS SHIT IS WACK!!!!!" Noted another: "EXCUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSE ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY NOT JUST LEAVE IT ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!1111." And
another: "wtf is this bullshttttttttttt all about. can i get n plzzzzzzzzz."
ReadWriteWeb later posted a letter to all "visitors from Google" within the original post, explaining (and
directing them to Facebook): "This site is not Facebook. This is a Web site called ReadWriteWeb that reports on news about Facebook and other Internet services. You can however click here and become a
Fan of ReadWriteWeb on Facebook, to receive our updates and learn more about the Internet."
