Setting up a Facebook "feed" on your website

OK, so our team regularly adds Twitter and Blog feeds to websites.  Often we get aksed to add a Facebook feed... thing is, Facebook is not really a "feed" as it's made up of posts and info from you and other users.  So to add the Facebook "stream" to your site, what you need to do is add a customised view of the "Like Box" social plugin.

To do this, follow the instructions on this page:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box/

Happy coding!

Facebook Username

Thanks Facebook... before you used to have to wait until you had 25+ likes to your page... but now you can set a username for your page straight away! Just remember, you can't change it once it's set.

Why does this matter? Well, by setting a username you can have a shorter URL...
