THANKS & NO THANKS: The expanded "like" feature for Facebook Connect is being plugged to users via a banner when they log in, Digital Media Wire helpfully points out so that we don’t have to. Near the bottom of the page explaining the feature, Facebook provides a link to opt out of it. "No Thanks" opt-out buttons will also be placed on partner sites. "If you opt-out, your public Facebook information can still be shared by your friends to these partner sites unless you block the application," reads the disclaimer. (4/22a)
