Brilliant, thanks! In the middle of creating a fanpage myself. Nearly pulled out all my hair lastnight trying to figure out that static FBML malark… Thanks for the useful info… btw, i uploaded the Twitter and Linkedin app which worked well, however the Linkedin is showing in my profile rather than on my Fan page.. any insight?
Thanks,
Susan Heslington

Hmmm… Facebook is something I’ve just been using the basics. I’ve been wanting to create a fan page for people to join for my lifestyle development blog. This is actually something I’ve been putting off because 1. I don’t know how to do it and 2. I get bogged down in other blogging chores.

Maybe I can start looking into this a bit more and using it to direct readers to my blog?

Yeah I had it in there but then realized I had one too many! You are right though Fred that it is crucial for people trying to do something innovative with their Facebook page. I was pitching this list at non techie people though who could just install something simple and not have to be too techie

Well I am a little split on it TBH. We used to pull our posts in to facebook but there more I thought about it the more I wanted people to actually be reading them here on the blog and interacting here rather than on Facebook. There are some very good uses for it if you get it right but there is nothing worse than somebody who just uses RSS to populate their Facebook page, I think it gets boring very very quickly!

Yeah cheers for those. It will be interesting to see if there will be a huge migration of bands over to Facebook from Myspace now that the numbers are on the dwndle. My guess is that there will be as they will have to go where the eyeballs are!

Thanks for sharing Niall. I would definitely include “Static FBML” to include customized tabs and HTML into your page.

Thanks for the great list. What are your thoughts on RSS feeds, I use NetworkedBlog and it works but sometimes slow.

Ilike and Reverbnation applications for Facebook are really great for bands/artists fan pages …
