      Which means that my Aggregations Journalism+Sharing to Facebook project will likely become the most successful side project I've done so far

        Which is just awesome and wild. It's also just led to some strange also wonderful, but totally unexpected things.

          Over the year+, ~a dozen people messaged me on FB out of the blue, some I've had no contact w/ for years, & thanked me for sharing links.

            Which is humbling, unexpected, and still sort of surprising to me whenever it happens. Or when someone recommends my FB to someone else.

              It is very weird to me b/c the original idea was to collect stats for a year & shut it down, but now I'm wondering if I should do more w/it

                Beyond a bunch of stats geeks I never imagined anyone would care about the project. I was honestly worried I wouldn't get that many clicks

                  So, a good thing overall though. What's next for it? Not sure. Something fun!

                    Whatever the next stage is, I'm probably going to try and make some money w/it at the same time though. So that'll be exciting.

                      Really don't have much of an idea on how to do that yet. So, more adventures to have!

                        Oh also, I finally discovered why, for most cases, you sometimes see a link shortner as the source on a FB share instead of canonical source

                          Turns out Facebook doesn't crawl through canonical headers or redirects when people share with a mobile device. Likely to speed things up.

                            Or to save the user some data, which is a nice thought.

                              But! It does use the cached data for the share card associated w/the canonical URL. A clever hack taking advantage of FB's massive userbase
