Thanks to a bug on my blog, I learned that Facebook ignores the og:image for a og:url that it "knows" (at least until refreshed). So when sharing a link to my blog on Facebook, the image was always incorrect because I had the incorrect og:url... I didn't realize earlier because I mainly share on Twitter and Linkedin and they respect the og:image independently of the provided og:url.

...maybe I should write a short post about it...
