Hello Kitty and Anpanman

Hello Kitty lost her long-held spot as Japan’s top-grossing character in 2002 and has never recovered. In the latest survey, released this month, Kitty ranked a distant third, behind the leader, Anpanman, a character that is based on a Japanese jam-filled pastry and is produced by Nippon Television. The second spot is still held by the venerable game and animation brand Pokémon, owned by Nintendo.

So seriously, does Facebook KNOW that there’s no difference between this and a Tumblr? Or that you can already connect your Facebook TO Tumblr? Because that seems like something they should know.
