The features Facebook has any programmer could add to their blog, sure.

However if you were coding the same feature for twitter I'd be surprised if you kept even 5% of the original code. Coding at the scale facebook is at is a completely different ball game.

Anyone can add those features to their blog but not everyone can add them to Facebook.
