All about social software and networks
17 Jul
I am playing along with Read/Write Web and making this weeks posts about Facebook.
I just realized today that you can import your blog posts into your Facebook Notes. I am not sure why this fact has escaped me for so long. The more I scrape at the surface of Facebook the more I find I like. But wouldn’t it be better for Facebook if I just made Notes my preferred blogging tool?
Where are trackbacks? I find trackbacks an important feature for blogging conversations. The question is are they really necessary in Facebook? The answer is maybe, maybe not.
If everyone is on Facebook then they will automatically know when a new note is published. But this leaves anyone not on Facebook out of the conversation. Facebook plays down that Notes are blog posts, but I am not sure you can see them any other way. As I have mentioned before, this is one of the items that ruined a potentially wonderful social network, Yahoo! 360. Lets hope there will be some movement to further develop Notes into a full fledged blogging platform.
