Facebook Blog Networks adds Friends feature

Posted by Flick in Website on 11 9th, 2008 | View Comments

By now most people are familiar with Facebook Pages, where anyone or any entity can connect with their fans. Considering that Facebook has over 120 million active users and ranks as the fourth most-trafficked site (according to comScore), utilizing Facebook could potentially send your website quite a bit of traffic and exposure.

Blog Networks is a lesser known Facebook application that aggregates blog feeds. Add the application and you can become a reader (similar to being a fan) of a blog. Then the most recent posts from each blog you read will be listed in your Blog Networks news feed (a separate feed from your Facebook feed).

Inside the Blog Networks app, you can begin to sift through the list of blogs you read in your Blog Networks News Feed list. Vote for a post by clicking on the green thumbs-up icon next to the title of the post and others will be more likely to find the post even though they may not subscribe to that blog. The Most Voted tab shows a list of the posts with the most votes (self explanatory) out of all the blogs on Blog Networks.

Blog Networks added a new feature today that lists the latest posts from blogs that your Facebook read. You can also see a list of blogs that your friends have subscribed to, listed either by blog or by friend. This new feature should greatly improve Blog Networks since it creates a more fluid network, exposing you to the blogs your friends are reading.

Mashable posted some startling statistics about Blog Networks: There are 17,000 blogs already added to Blog Networks. 300 blogs are being added every day. They currently have over 230,000 monthly active users.
