Have you seen this? Have you heard about this?

Facebook now conveniently (?) offers a link to purchase a Birthday Flyer for your friend rather than write on their wall on their birthday.

Advance warning: if anyone I know ever gets me a Facebook Flyer in lieu of an actual present, we’re no longer friends.

That aside, this is pretty stupid. The $1 billion Yahoo! deal or some other revenue they were counting on must be dead if they’re stooping to aggressively pushing birthday flyers.
