I wanted to start by saying that I hope everybody had a fantastic holiday season and new year! I’ve got a bunch of stuff in the hopper for this little blog for the coming year, so be sure to stay tuned to find out what’s ahead 
Social networking sites are popping up everywhere. Bookmarks, videos, pictures, you name it – there’s a website out there that will let you share all of this stuff and more with all of your Internet-aware buddies.
But even for those who haven’t drank this particular flavor of kool-aid yet, the name ‘Facebook‘ is quickly becoming the most notable example of social networking (except, perhaps, the oft-loathed MySpace). Everybody and their college-aged buddy has an account, and many people live and die by it as a way of interacting with current friends, as well as making new ones.
So, how is a budding blogger to tap into this gigantic group of potential new readers and subscribers? Well, I’m glad you asked…
My good buddy Glen (proprietor of LifeDev.net and my partner in the LifeRemix network) has launched a brand new service that lets ordinary bloggers transform their blogs into full-blown Facebook applications! It couldn’t possibly be any easier – just answer a few simple questions about your blog, go through the slick little wizard and you’re off and running. It takes only a few minutes and requires absolutely no programming knowledge!
The best part is, the application is hosted on the Blogfuse server – which means that no matter how popular your Facebook app becomes, you never have to worry about downtime. And, if you ever decide to move your blog or change your format, the app moves right along with you.
He has plans starting at $5 per month (just imagine skipping your daily Venti Mocha from Starbucks ™ once per month – there, paid for). If you’re a serious blogger, you can sign up for the Problogger package which allows you to host up to 10 Facebook apps!
And just to whet your appetites a little, I’ve got some free stuff to give away…
The first 5 people to comment on this post will win a free, lifetime Problogger subscription on this new service. At $30 per month, this is no trivial thing – $360 per year for as long as you stay on board!
These are sure to fly off the shelves, so get your comments in and do it quick – and be sure to include an email address in the provided field so I can send you the 411. Good luck!
