I found this article on CNN.com about Facebook Patenting their news feed technology.
Basically the patent application for the news feed section of Facebook was approved. And some of the other social media websites have to watch how similar their sites are to Facebook.com.
I find it somewhat scary that you can get a patent on something that several companies already use. I agree that there should be patents however companies who suffer from being the second one in line to the patent office should be grandfathered in.
