Facebook Stole My Page

Way back when Facebook Pages came out, I created one for Link. I watched as it gained a few members here and there but to be honest I pretty much forgot about it. Until about a week ago when Facebook messaged me asking me to prove I had the legal rights to post updates from Link within 3 weeks or they would take away my updating privileges, as if I was fooling everyone into believing I was Link and the REAL Link was getting angry. I also noticed that the page had gotten over 20,000 fans which I thought was pretty cool. I replied and said I wasn’t Link from the Zelda games nor did I work for Nintendo but that I would gladly give the rights to Nintendo if they wanted them. A few days later they replied saying they were taking away my ability to post updates:(. I can still edit the page however.

Here is the page if you want to take a look or become a fan.

This whole thing is pretty silly. Miyamoto probably isn’t on Facebook anyway.

I heard about Tumblr a long time ago, but for some reason it didn’t seem as appealing as it does now.

If you haven’t heard of it, its basically a blog site like Wordpress or Blogger but instead of just making posts, you choose from six different kind of posts: Text, Photo, Quote, Link, Chat, and Audio. I think it’s a pretty neat idea, but I’m not sure if I should use it since I have a blag already. I might use it if I think of an idea for a second blog.

I’m trying it out here.

Also: There’s a really cool Tumblr iPhone app that can use the camera and microphone to make Photo and Audio posts, so that’s pretty neat.
