    Interesting story coming out about FB hiring a PR firm to plant stories about Google's Social Circle feature in Gmail over supposed privacy concerns.

    Things are starting to get real nasty between these two.

    FaceBook response to being caught out
    "Facebook has released a statement with regards to the reasoning behind hiring the PR firm, telling Cnet that it was not trying to muster up a 'smear campaign' against Google but was trying to gauge the reaction of third parties when they found out about Social Circles and the potential privacy problems of the service."
