Well, you asked one now.
Now make sure it becomes more popular (then it is currently).
I kick started it.

Not a bad idea… maybe the guys will give us this option someday. It could be added to the ‘Share Question’ link, which currently only allows you to share it via Fluther (to another member) or email.

You can add a question to your Facebook later of yours or someone else’s. Just post a link to the question on your profile with your comments.

@anartist Duh. <slaps forehead> Why didn’t I think of that? That’s exactly how I post the ‘Question of the Day’ on facebook. I think I may need more sleep…

@augustlan I am on a wired all-nighter working on a job and that’s why I thought of it. I’m at my sharpest then. BTW I did post a question from here a few days ago about “burn-a-Qu’ran day” and it started a short-lived movement to meet and buy Qu’rans to give to mosques. I’m glad it fizzled because now I am too tired to do it

Lively discussions on Fluther [this was my facebook comment that went with the link]
[from fluther link]Regarding burn a koran day, I have a proposition, what do…
www.fluther.com
I propose, that if this pastor in Florida does go ahead and burn copies of the Koran, that we all go out and pay a book publishing company to print two copies

What an excellent idea that was! If it happens, I’m in.

Yeah, we should make is easier. There’s actually a secret way to do this now:

Just go to a question, then edit the url bar and add

?facebook_broadcast=1

to the end of the web address. That should bring up the Facebook share window.

Also, you can always just share a link on Facebook by cutting and pasting.

All that being said, we’ve talked about adding a simple Share button to make it much easier to share on Facebook/Twitter. But I still like the secret method.
