Not sure if this is he appropriate place for this, but for the past couple of hours, the Tom's Hardware Facebook page has been re-posting the same 3 articles over and over, like 30 times or so and another Google article around 10 times. Do they use a bot or something to post articles from the site to their Facebook page that is misbehaving?

Ah, thank you for pointing that out. To address your question, yes, the Tom's Hardware social feeds have recently transitioned to an automated posting process. It's still something we're testing, and this is an obvious issue that needs to be corrected. I'll go and clean up the feeds momentarily and inform the person in charge of the automation that his creation is running wild :p
