There were some interesting posts over the weekend from Steve Cheney and Robert Scoble on whether utilizing Facebook Comments kills or in fact increases user authenticity within on-site commenting. It also proves helpful to sites that are battling with comment spam and low-quality or inappropriate comments.

The counterpoint is that most of these posts are getting a lot of likes, comments and shares. Lately I’ve been noticing a lot of Facebook posts in my news feed with a specific request to “LIKE” the post. Sports teams are among the biggest offenders: Now don’t get me wrong.

In looking at recent posts of the day, most are getting more than 2,000 “likes” and a considerable number of comments: If there are 10,000 active fans daily you would think they’d all be “liking” the post of the day since that is primarily what is driving the repeat visits. But 2,000+ likes per wall post is impressive. Apparently it does.
