			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s really easy to have Facebook post your blog&#8217;s news feed to your Facebook Notes.  Here&#8217;s how, with pictures! This is a great way to let people who are just on Facebook and not active blog readers know about your blog and what&#8217;s going on with you. </p>
<p>First, you need to find your blog&#8217;s feed URL &#8211; it&#8217;s probably a link labeled something like &#8220;RSS&#8221; or &#8220;Atom&#8221; or &#8220;Feed&#8221; in the sidebar or at the bottom of each blog page.  You&#8217;ll want the one that has just your posts &#8211; some blogging entries will have multiple feeds &#8211; for example, one that is just comments other people have made.   Copy this URL &#8211; you&#8217;ll need it later. </p>
<p>Next, log into Facebook, and in the left hand navigation click on where it says &#8220;Notes&#8221; &#8211; you may have to click the &#8220;more&#8221; link to get it to show up:</p>
<p><img src="http://zackofalltrades.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/picture-1.png" alt="Picture 1.png" border="0" width="159" height="257" /></p>
<p>Once your notes have loaded, in the right column where it says &#8220;Notes Settings&#8221;, click &#8220;Import a Blog >>&#8221;:</p>
<p> <img src="http://zackofalltrades.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/picture-5.png" alt="Picture 5.png" border="0" width="185" height="95" /></p>
<p>In the next screen, paste the feed URL into where it says &#8220;Web URL:&#8221;, click the checkbox (after reading the copyright warning of course) and then press &#8220;Start Importing&#8221;:</p>
<p><img src="http://zackofalltrades.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/picture-7.png" alt="Picture 7.png" border="0" width="447" height="321" /></p>
<p>In a little bit, all the blog posts in your RSS feed should show up as Facebook Notes, with a link back to your blog. When you make a new post, it will be automatically added as soon as Facebook scrapes your RSS feed.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is totally naval gazing, but I think it&#8217;s kind of interesting what people use as their <a href="http://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</a> profile pictures.   So, in a fit of sociological curiosity, I decided to count em&#8217; up broken down by gender:</p>
<p><strong>Men</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Just themselves: 9</li>
<li>In a public situation with others: 3</li>
<li>In formal wedding attire: 2</li>
<li>With spouse: 2</li>
<li>With pet: 1</li>
<li>&#8220;Artistic rendition&#8221;: 1</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Women</strong> </p>
<ul>
<li>With spouse: 2</li>
<li>In formal wedding attire: 1</li>
<li>In formal wedding attire with spouse: 1</li>
<li>Just themselves: 1</li>
<li>With pet: 1</li>
<li>Obviously photoshopped: 1</li>
<li>Landscape photo with nobody in it: 1</li>
</ul>
<p>What I can gather from this is that if you&#8217;re male, you&#8217;re much more likely to put a picture of your manly bod or something that portrays you as being cool or social as your profile picture.  </p>
<p>If you&#8217;re female, you&#8217;re likely to put up a picture that indicates that you&#8217;re &#8220;taken&#8221; (if that&#8217;s the case).  On the whole the women put up more a more diverse, creative set of pictures. </p>
<p>This analysis is probably skewed by my particular data set, but it&#8217;s just interesting nonetheless. </p>
