You can’t TAG your own Page?

Latest update (or perhaps just a bug) is that if you have a new page you cannot TAG it in a status update.

By using the @ symbol you could TAG a person (only your friends) or a Page (if you LIKED it) and your post would then show up on their wall.

tag1

In the status update box just type the @ symbol and then start typing the page title or persons name until you see the one you are looking for in the drop down that appears below.  In the example above I knew I wanted to TAG my friends over at 210 Consulting.  I started with the @ and the just 21 and up they popped.

It seems this is just effecting the newer styled pages and not the older ones.

Hopefully this is just a temporary bug.  Speaking of bugs

Does Facebook have BUGS?

You bet they do!

Behind the scenes there are always issues being addressed, ALWAYS.  Internally they call it Bugzilla and according to the latest developers blog post

bugs

Can you imagine over 4,000 active bugs that need to be addressed right now?

If Facebook isn’t working for you chances are it’s just a bug.  Sleep tight!

He's an avid hockey fan, rides a mountain bike, sometimes rides a road bike, has a few motorcycles (he had a really fast one, bought a cool orange one, rode a really slow one, and now,a perfect "BDR Weapon"). If that isn't enough, he makes cheese and sourdough bread, loves strong beer and good red wine, and poorly plays the Mandolin.

Who to host with?

It's the #1 question I'm asked - where to find inexpensive shared hosting. Here's who I recommend.
Data Servers are a HUGE drain on the power grid. Here's a host that sources 300% of it's power from Wind and Solar! On top of that, their service ROCKS!
Check out GreenGeeks

Need more power?

WPEngine has it!
