			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As best as I can tell, this just started today. When I clicked on a link posted by one of my friends (hey Chip!), the resulting page, which was on a WordPress blog, looked like this:</p>
<div id="attachment_365" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 795px"><a href="http://orrenmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/picture-12.jpg"><img class="size-large wp-image-365" title="picture-12" src="http://orrenmedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/picture-12-1024x424.jpg" alt="picture-12" width="785" height="325" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Click for larger image</p></div>
<p style="text-align: left;">A couple notable items:</p>
<ul>
<li>The banner at the top is unobtrusive enough not to be annoying, but gives the <em>option</em> of bringing the conversation back to Facebook, where you&#8217;re more likely to know people and follow along &#8212; generating more FB pageviews.</li>
<li>The URL on the page is a FB URL. I wonder how much havoc this creates with the visited site&#8217;s traffic logs?</li>
<li>The banner stays until you hit the x or type a new URL. I&#8217;d like to see it go away after a couple clicks.</li>
<li>We&#8217;ll implement something inspired by this for Our Little Business shortly after the holidays. We do a lot of linkout stories where people return to us for conversation and I think this encourages that without being too obtrusive.</li>
</ul>
