Facebook

I saw you mention how Facebook isn't working for some users, guess I'm one of them. :)

I've got an API key plugged into the config, but I'm a little confused as to what the 'id' and 'username' should be. I'm assuming the 'username' is http://www.facebook.com/username? For instance http://www.facebook.com/wulfey would be mine. And as for the 'id' I tried going to my Notifications RSS feed and pulling it from the URL. But even after doing all of this, I get an API error.

Again, thanks in advance for the help!

The Facebook service is very circumstantial. I have tried various methods to get it to work and have had no success. I've chalked it up to my privacy settings being "Friend Only" on everything and I'm not about to change this just so I can have my Facebook status show up on my website.

From what I understand, Facebook has blocked all public streams because of the privacy policy.

To access the feed stream, you need an access token:
https://graph.facebook.com/<user_id>/feed?access_token=<token>

Where <token> should be called with the parameter &scope=offline_access to prevent expiration.
