Another chapter in the Facebook vs. Lamebook, errmm, book: the social networking giant has confirmed to us that it has moved to diligently block all outgoing links to Lamebook.com, shut down the two-person company's Facebook Page (previously at facebook.com/thelamebook), and blocks visitors of the funny site from 'liking' posts to boot. For your background: Facebook wants the Austin startup to quit using the name Lamebook, deeming its activities under that name an "improper attempt to build a brand that trades off Facebook?s popularity and fame", and filed a trademark infringement lawsuit last week.
