Whoever wants this implemented should provide something like this:

<head>
    ...
    <!-- Required OGP Tags -->
    <meta property="og:title" content="Mike Everhart - Web Designer.
Programmer. Geek." />
    <meta property="og:type" content="website" />
    <meta property="og:url" content="http://mikeeverhart.net/" />
    <meta property="og:image"
content="http://mikeeverhart.net/mike-everhart-facebook.png" />
    ...
</head>
