Just noticing that Yelp reviews produce Beacon stories. I think it would be good if Faves could also create Beacon stories too when our users Fave something.

Gary clued me in to this service - which is kind of the flip side of the Friend Feed equation - "How do I DISTRIBUTE all my feeds out to different information sinks".
I found through personal experience that just hooking up feeds and blasting everything everywhere does NOT work - it's too noisy to send everything I'm doing to Facebook status updates or Twitter, for example.

@s message - Posts a status update
@b title^body - Posts a blog
@m message - Posts a micro-blogQuoted: Ping.fm is a simple service that allows you to post to multiple social networks with a single message.

Mark has some really interesting things to say about efficiency of communication - and that Facebook's goal is really about helping solve these kinds of problems.
Sarah Lacy (moderator) got heckled quite a bit for being a "bitchy" reporter.
Send Mike a friend request or a personal message instead.
