Welcome...



...All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain....

- soliloquy from Blade Runner


Bits and bytes do get lost, awash in the rain of data flow that is Internet. They slip away from us, never to found again... some of them will be captured here, many more will not... like tears in rain...

Facebook feed dialog cutting description text passed using CSS

If you use Feed Dialog to post to the wall, Facebook will cut off your description.

Looks like this is "by design" :( Dirty word, isn't it?

 You can pass text in a description as much as you want, but Facebook has CSS that squeeze your text into box 72px tall... without "See more..." or anything like that.

 I can understand the box part, but no "See more"? Why not??? It's already there, and I, as a user, want to see the rest... Doesn't make sense.

And here's the bug report:
