Your favorite social network offers another type of privacy! This Facebook Shower Curtain has a transparent square in the screen that lets you create a profile image while you suds up. No drama, no “complicated status.” Just good ol’ bathtub jokes and tagged photos with the shower head.
We found this shower curtain on the website Spinning Hat, along with other playful bathroom items like red shower gel in a blood bag and toilet paper printed with comics.
Being inside a living Facebook profile reminds us of the Facebook costume that was popular a few years ago.
There are a bevy of oddball items available on the web for Facebook fans — earrings, bras with the “like” icon, T-shirts, baby onesies.
What’s the wackiest Facebook product you’ve seen? Post it in the comments.

New Social Network Connects Travelers with Destinations, Experts
The Spark of Genius Series highlights a unique feature of startups and is made possible by Microsoft BizSpark. If you would like to have your startup considered for inclusion, please see the details here.
Many turn to friends and family for advice and recommendations when traveling to a new destination. But now you can find all the travel information you need through a new social network called Touristlink, which allows travelers to not only meet and connect with other travelers around the world but also get answers from experts.
“Touristlink is a way to communicate with other travelers and travel experts,” Dr. David Urmann, CEO of Touristlink, told Mashable. “Right now, no other site gives users a means to communicate with them.”
By signing up for Touristlink through Facebook or on the site directly, members can create lists of their favorite destinations and share with friends, suggest new attractions for other travelers and post photos of cities they’ve traveled to in the past.
Instagram Photos Now Show Up Full Size on Facebook
Instagram has announced deeper integration with Facebook — now your Instagram pictures shared to Facebook will be displayed in full size on your timeline or the timeline of a friend.
Not only will the photo show up in all its glory, but the caption you’ve added from within the Instagram app on the iPhone will be sitting there underneath. The integration goes even deeper, letting you share your friends’ pictures (or even groups of pictures) from Instagram onto Facebook. You can create an “Instagram Photos” album on your Facebook account to aggregate all those photos.
The insular nature of the Instagram service still remains, where the only platform you can use to take Instagram pictures is the iPhone. But this new capability opens things up considerably. According to Instagram:
You can also share Instagram images that a friend has posted to Facebook by using the “Share” button below that friend’s image in order to post the photo to your own timeline, on a friend’s timeline, in a group, on your page, or in a private message.
Perhaps this is a signal of the further unfurling of the Instagram universe. You didn’t think Instagram was going to remain exclusive to the iPhone forever, did you? Even Instagram itself has always said it aims to spread the service to other platforms.
Until now, I found it mildly frustrating to see my Instagram photos reduced to mere thumbnails whenever I shared them on my Facebook account, so I’m glad to see this new capability. How about you? Do you welcome this new Facebook integration, or do you wish Instagram would have left well enough alone?
