Keeping Track Of Your Favorite Facebook Pages Via RSS
For those of you who haven’t heard, Facebook has added a new feature that allows you to subscribe to your favorite pages via RSS. The “Subscribe via RSS” option has been around for a little over a week now and can be accessed via a link on the bottom left side of Facebook pages, just below the profile picture.
Similar to RSS feeds for sites and blogs, the Facebook RSS option allows you to stay up to date on the latest happenings revolving around your favorite pages without necessarily having to login into Facebook. This is made possible by a feed reader or news aggregator, from where all updated wall posts can be read.
Users whose access to Facebook is restricted by their employer or school can take advantage of this option to sidestep the restriction and read new content via the feed readers.
Previously, Facebook pages could only be subscribed via SMS, but now we can see some pages offering both SMS and RSS options. Don’t be alarmed, if there’s no option to subscribe via SMS, not all pages are showing this.
How to subscribe to Facebook Pages using Google Reader
Step 1: Login into Facebook and go to the page you want to subscribe
Step 2: Locate the “Subscribe via RSS” link (bottom left side below profile picture). Right click on it and copy link address
Step 3: Login to Google Reader and click on Add a subscription
Step 4: Paste the link from Step 2 above and Click Add
And you’re done!
Now, you’ll be able to read any update made to the wall of this page. That simple!
