- peter123 18y agoNot just facebook... every other company in silicon valley is doing that. Even google's adwords was first invented by overture. Latest eg. Palm Pre (and 15 other smartphones) incorporating iPhone UI elements.

- DaniFong 18y agoIn overture, you could buy the search results, though. Apparently, the founders looked at that and said "don't be evil."
- catch23 18y agoyou can do that in yahoo if you're in the know... yahoo owns the famous overture patent so that may be why.
- kwamenum86 18y agoFacebook had a status feature before Twitter was founded. They made it more prominent after Twitter became popular but I think that was just a coincidence.
