Pants on the Ground?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Social Media on February 25, 2010| Leave a Comment »
In a constant quest to find the most obscure and interesting Facebook fan pages, today I succeeded. The Norwegian Olympic Curling teams pants currently has 451,528 fans. I’m debating, should I make it 451,529?
The page started by a US curling fan was taken down yesterday due to a violation of Facebook’s terms of service. After a flood of angry messages and postings, the site was restored.
The Olympic come to a close on Sunday. I think I’ll pass on this group.
