Remember the
Facebook experiment that'd let you pay to send messages to strangers
inboxes? According to several reputable sources, not only will you be able to
inflict your opinions on members of the general public, but for a
premium you'll also be able to abuse celebrities. According to The Sunday
Times, figures such as Michael Rosen, Tom Daley and Salman Rushdie can all
be reached if you splash out around £10.68 ($16) -- with the fees on a sliding
scale based on how many followers they have. According to prolific twitterer
Rosen, he wasn't asked about being charged for access, and won't receive a
penny of the paid fan mail. In an effort to test it out, we sent a cheery Monday
morning message to Snoop Dogg Snoop Lion, who is meant to be
on the price list, but strangely we weren't charged a penny -- so we're not
sure how far this has been rolled out. Either way, that's a tenner saved right
there. [Source]
