What\u2019s going on?\nUniversal Motown, Marvin Gaye\u2019s record label, has launched a successful Facebook campaign to celebrate the 40th anniversary of his What\u2019s Going On album. The campaign asks fans to post photos of \u201CWhat\u2019s going on\u201D all over the world. \nFans responded by loading photos, videos and even editorials. A few people posted pictures from the flooding in North Dakota. A woman named Kelly Salazar complained about segregation in Santa Cruz, California. \nThere are only about 20 posts, yet Inside Facebook reports that the campaign has been a big success. Gaye had fewer than 300,000 fans at the beginning of the week and, as of Thursday morning, had more than 900,000 \u2014 an increase of more than 200%. Reps from Universal Motown could not be reached for comment.\nCoincidentally, Gaye\u2019s name also popped up as a trending topic in Twitter this week as a result of Big Sean &amp; Kanye West\u2019s hit \u201CMarvin Gaye &amp; Chardonnay.\u201D\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
