Facebook has released a list of the 40 news stories that users shared most during 2011.
Some of the most popular stories shared by Facebook’s 800 million-strong-and-growing population covered such diverse topics as zodiac symbols, touching videos, Steve Jobs, animals, natural disasters and more. According to the Telegraph, the top story (see slideshow) was shared more than 600,000 times.
Lost Remote notes that all 40 stories have several things in common. “Nearly all feature a short, grabby headline that explains the story well,” wrote Lost remote. “All stories are [also] from major news organizations with good-sized FB pages (reach matters).”
