I have recently linked Terri Brisbin's blog from her website to her Goodreads author page. Terri told me that she is much better at updating her Facebook page than her website. Is it possible to link her FB page as her blog instead of the RSS blog on her website?

I don't think so either, but I didn't know if anyone knew of another way around this. I figure there is a lot about FB that I don't know so I'm hoping someone has dealt with this and has a workable solution. If not, at least I'll know.
Actually, the Facebook pages do have an RSS feed. If you look at the bottom left of the page, you'll see it says subscribe via RSS. I've never used it. This info may help: http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=212...+
From what I can tell, this works if they have a page, such as you would have for a business, but not for a personal page. This actually makes sense when you consider that a business page is public but a personal page is just that, personal. I guess in such situations authors will need to create a public fan page or continue using outside RSS feeds for their blog link. Thanks for the help!
