The 25 most liked pages on Facebook

For those of you on Facebook, you know what this means. Being "Liked" just means that someone has clicked the "like" button on your page.

Here's the list of the top 25.

The only surprise on the list, as far as I'm concerned, is Bob Marley (#18). He would have killed for this kind of fan support when he was alive. 28,719,894 have clicked "like" on his page.

And I'm one of 'em.

Link roundup

1. Preorder links for The Old Republic ($60-$150) with an expected release date of 12/31/11. (I didn't see what the monthly subscription would cost.)

2. Grantland looks at NFL free agent busts through the years.

3. "Have we got a contest for you! Break out those Photoshop skills and place your favorite writer on our super-duper Paris Review beach towel for a chance to win exactly this towel!" Via.

4. Laughing Squid uncovered more information and video about that bowling pin car I posted a few days ago.

Zillow

Another internet property that hasn't made money went public this week, and investors snapped it up like candy.

This one is real estate site Zillow.

I'm starting to think that Just One Bad Century should go public, but I worry that because we've actually made a profit investors won't want anything to do with us.

As the Rupert Turns

Investors seemed calmed after the Murdochs testified, at least for that one day.

Since then, not so much.

It appears people are starting to wake up to the fact that this story is far from over. Here's a preview of the next bombshell.

Unless it's this upcoming bombshell.

Oh, and then there's the potential fallout from people brave enough to scrutinize his ridiculous testimony, particularly the part about being a hands-off CEO.
