in thread Facebook 'like' button.

Hi Moritz,

It's true they are a nightmare and I always use them with discretion myself. However, if anyone can solve this issue, it's us. This is our core competence. For instance, if PM had a copy of the image button in its directories and we spoofed the action of the button, only passing through to Facebook if someone clicks.

Here's a link to Facebook on it. http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/

Regards

Steve

    Then we'd probably be infringing their copyright and/or trademark

    Update (2011-08-03): see this blog post for what happens when one tries to implement a solution that isn't a privacy nightmare.
