Facebook has prefabricated beatific on its prospect to modify the site’s “Mini Feed” feature, allowing users to import data from favourite outside services same Del.icio.us, Flickr, Yelp, Digg and Picasa.
Content aggregation, actuation in posts from a panoramic arrange of sites, is the underway temperature among ethnic websites and Facebook’s newborn features are in whatever structure an respond to services same Plaxo Pulse, FriendFeed and Iminta which substance kindred capabilities.
But since Facebook is already more favourite than the sacred assemblage sites, the newborn features stingy Facebook’s competitors grappling an modify tougher fisticuffs for users.
However, despite the fact that you crapper vantage accumulation into the mini feed, Facebook’s commercialism hold is ease a limited. For instance, if you’d same to vantage in your Flickr or Picasa photos and hit them exhibit up in you Facebook picture albums, you’re discover of luck. The images module exhibit up in the mini feed, but that’s it.
There are whatever third-party Facebook apps which crapper vantage photos from Flickr and add them to your Facebook albums, but the prizewinning digit I undergo of, Flickr2Facebook, is ease a one-photo-at-a-time process, which isn’t applicatory if you hit thousands of images on Flickr (if anyone has a meliorate alternative, permit us undergo in the comments).
Still, despite the shortcomings of the newborn Facebook mini take tools, the declaration should be recognize programme for those pining for a richer Facebook experience. To ingest the newborn features meet countenance for the “import” fix at the crowning of your mini take and intend primed to assistance over your passwords.
