Speaking of FriendFeed being acquired by Facebook (see previous post), this video of Hilter reacting to the news is pretty funny, and a nice extension to the series of these “Hilter finds out…” videos. Of course, you really have to be a regular user of FriendFeed to get many of the jokes.

Here’s a comment thread on FriendFeed about this video.

Ben Stiller has joined Facebook and has made a typically clever and funny video to introduce himself to Facebook fans. It comes across as irreverent but honest and sincere, well sort of, ha. As I said on Twitter, if you want a million fans on Facebook in just a few days, be Ben Stiller, that’s all there is to it.

I wish I could embed the video here, but of course I can’t, so this link to the video will have to suffice.

UPDATE: Oh, the video is on YouTube now too. Here is the embed:

Apart from being funny, this video is another reminder of just how far Twitter has moved into mainstream pop-culture. We now have William Shatner reciting Sarah Palin’s tweets for a few laughs on the Tonight Show! Over the past two and a half years or so, it’s been fascinating to watch Twitter go from a relatively small geek community to a mainstream pop-cultural phenomenon.
