Subscribing to RSS feeds in Facebook
// September 9th, 2008 // No Comments » // Facebook, RSS
Keeping up with all your friends on Facebook can get to be a real chore, expecially when you have to log into your account just to check out what’s going on. Why can’t I just grab any new content in something that I use every day, such as an RSS reader? Well, you can! Today, I’ll outline how to create an RSS feed in Facebook and subscribe to it in your favorite RSS reader.
First, you’re going to want to log into your facebook account. From here you can go to your posted news page via http://www.new.facebook.com/posted.php.
Enter this into your browser's address bar.
Scroll down and look on the right column to right click on the link labeled “My Friends’ Posted Items” and copy the url.
Next, we’ll open up your favorite RSS reader (in my case, Google Reader) and add a new subscription using the copied text.
Now you can sit back and check in on all your friends from the comfort of your favorite RSS reader, making it much easier to keep up on everything going on with your friends.
