How to Install a Facebook Blog Widget or Badge

by on August 16, 2007 in Social Media

Phil Burns tells how:

Go to your Profile page in Facebook, scroll ALL the way to the bottom. On the left side there are two links, “Profile Layout” and “Create a Profile Badge”. Click “Create a Profile Badge”.

I made this post simply because I spent considerable time searching for a Facebook blog widget and found nothing either in searches or within Facebook itself. But I wanted one. Now you won’t find nothing when searching for this! You’ll find this. Why Facebook calls it a badge I’ll never know…

The best way to thank me is to link to this, bookmark in del.icio.us or subscribe to my RSS feed, I’d like to help you even more in the future. Thanks!

    Glad I could help! :) I only found how to create one by accident and thought it would be a good thing to share – in fact your emailing me and asking me to clarify how to find one led me to create a new post, on how to create 4 different badges.

    I don’t know why so many sites make it difficult to figure out how to get their badges – MyBlogLog is the only one I’ve seen that puts it right out front.
