The number of links to my little blog post over the past few days has been pretty impressive.
The Facebook email imbroglio seems to have mostly blown over now. And Facebook, after initially suggesting that users were too stupid to check their nested folders for messages (!), seems to have realized the problem was theirs and is working to fix it. Hopefully they’ll do some better QA after this.
The lesson I take away from all this is that despite the rise of social media, one little blog can still make an impact.
Also, MSNBC has some tips on what to do if you’ve been affected by this.
Facebook’s email system needs an overhaul. I’ve been using a 5gb Bitrix24 service to send emails and messages to my employees. I tried to use FB messenger but still wasn’t working how I wanted.
