Hence, I suggest, the number of non-active users. It doesn’t take much intelligence to ramble for 800 words – saying something worthwhile in 140 characters is far harder.

I just noticed with your Like buttons that they have a much nicer 'add a comment' option. I presume Facebook read my previous comment (!). No, things are changing so quickly with Facebook. Much more so than than they used to. I prefer your 'add a comment' option and will try and get that on Worldview Media. So, thanks! I can't wait to share an upcoming post in the series on Insights integration! Unlike Google Analytics it allows backdating of Facebook integration stats! Love Facebook! Cheers, Andrew. Great stuff.

When I'm sharing a link within Facebook, rather than from an app or a website, I like the control the share feature offers me. Things like choosing the image and changing the meta description that it offers. My personal preference is less the fire-and-forget hit like/recommend on a website, but manually sharing the link myself. And all over a sudden issues of control spring up ... ! Anyway, I've just added a recommend feature on my site at the bottom of every post based on what I've learnt from your post and then some help from Facebook and a nifty Wordpress app - http://www.jonathansherwin.net Sorry – wasn’t being specific!

It's pretty good actually, in my limited one-day of trial so far ... It allows you to set a default image for the whole site and the specify individual images for each page/post. I've had to tweak the plugin a bit where it produced a little bit of errorneous code when you input your app-id from facebook where it asked. So I pulled it from the plugin config and manually added it to the header of the site. Looks pretty comprehensive overall and up-to-date. Yes – it does allow for Open Graph.

Thanks. I'd be interested to see if it also allows configuration of the Open Graph Protocol which allows configuration of the featured image. I've tried quite a few plugins like this on Wordpress and they don't actually allow you much configuration. This topic will be the focus of PART 2 of the series. Watch this space! Andrew.

As a matter of interest, which content do you need to tailor? I hope I've understood your concerns right. As mentioned in the post, the new Like and Recommend (LR) buttons allow you (in most cases, depending on their configuration) to add a comment after you've hit them. You kind of roll over the button once you've pressed it (a little clunky still; I'm sure Facebook backroom staff will work on this). Try it on some of the pages on my site. If it's the image you like to tailor then I agree, at present you can't tailor the featured image from a LR button. But, I hope with posts like this, we can do something to ensure websites get the RIGHT featured image configured!! Cheers Andrew. Thanks for this.

I'm working on adding social share buttons to a site right now and looking to get it right. I prefer the 'share' option personally when I share content on Facebook - lets me tailor exactly how I want it. But the flip side is not having that control when other people share the same content. Looking forward to your thoughts on getting Facebook to find the right image. Mm … useful. I’m working on adding social share buttons to a site right now and looking to get it right.
