Facebook

Facebook Logo

Neptune now has his facebook account configured.

Syndicating content into face book is easy and there are a number of ways to do it.

  1. You can add an RSS or ATOM feed link to your notes application.
  2. There are a few 3rd party RSS facebook applications you can install and configure.

Syndicating content from facebook is not a core feature. They do this to protect privacy (however they could easily allow you to have the option).

the developed facebook application would need to be installed by the user. This application can syndicate content back to the developer. I’ll be writing a facebook app for Neptune in the coming days.
