Tech Report: Facebook Expanding Its Reach

(KCBS) - The social networking giant, Facebook, is expanding its reach by making it more difficult to post comments anonymously on some websites and blogs.

KCBS Technology Analyst Larry Magid says this means less likelihood of getting junk or obscene comments, but also means people who aren't on Facebook will have to sign up to comment on some websites. It could also be a big deterrent for people who have good reason for wanting to remain anonymous, he says.
