Facebook Hack – How “shared” is your website on Facebook?

In this blog I describe a cool little data mining hack you can use to determine how “shared” a specific website is on Facebook. Let’s say you want to determine how often the “http://www.cnet.com” site has been “shared” on Facebook. Simply type in the following as the URL address in a browser: “http://graph.facebook.com/http://cnet.com”. The syntax to use to check any site is “http://graph.facebook.com/[website_address]”. See below snapshots for examples. Have fun!
