Facebook: Importing a RSS Feed as Notes

Turn RSS into Facebook NotesOnce reason that I like Facebook over MySpace is that it makes it pretty easy for Facebook to just update itself. I don’t have to step in an actually post things of interest when it reads my RSS feed pretty easily.

To get this done all you need to do is login to Facebook and then find on the left sidebar your “Notes” application. Now you should see your friends’ notes and what they have posted or imported in. Next you’ll need to look for the “Import a Blog” link.

In good ol’ cooking show fashion I have an RSS feed all ready to plug in from our creating an ego feed with Yahoo! Pipes tutorial that has been pushed through FeedBurner. Now put your RSS feed address into the box marked “Web URL”. Click the check mark, hit the “Start Importing” button and you are ready to go.

Now all of your Facebook friends can keep up to date with you via your notes section. Need a friend? Feel free to add me!

Comments and Feedback

Any idea why when I try to add my blog feed to Facebook Notes it slows down my blog? I don’t just mean it slows down my blog a little but to the point it seems to end up shutting down.

Hmm.. I don’t think it should, since you are using a FeedBurner RSS feed, it would be pulling it’s information from FeedBurner and not from your URL exactly.
