Have you taken a look at the Networked Blogs application in Facebook? It allows you to follow all of your favorite blogs, similar to using an RSS reader, but within your Facebook account. You can add your own blog(s), or even the blog of your favorite blogger. Then they are all merged together in a feed in your Facebook account. It took me a while to figure out exactly what was happening, but now I get it.

I went into my blog “home page” over in Networked Blogs and I realized people are talking about a lot of interesting stuff that I might want to blog or write about. I happened to read ProBlogger’s latest post and while I don’t necessarily have the issue he’s talking about at the moment, I can definitely relate it to something I’ve written about before, hence my next post will be inspired by ProBlogger
But more can be taken from this than ideas for your next blog post. You can find ideas for content for your next product. Here are some examples:
- Shotmeloud has published a post called 3 Softwares to Compress and Resize Images for Your Blog – perfect if you are writing a course called “Power Blogging for Non-Techies”
- GetRichSlowly has published a post called Can You Afford to Go Green? – great information for an ebook on “Living Green in Today’s Economy”
- Mashable has published a post called Google Places: Google’s Local Business Center Gets an Upgrade – are you creating a video on “Making Your Little Shop POP on the Internet”?
Here’s a tip: Another thing you will want to do is read any comments on the blogs for questions/responses from readers who were obviously interested in the post topic. This can be great guidance for your product!
Also notice that if you “Like” a post on the Networked Blogs page, your picture will appear beneath the post. If you have an interesting enough picture, I’m sure you will get a few clicks from it as well to your profile.

Please share your Networked Blogs link as well.





There are some pitfalls in using Networked Blogs – Especially if you are a content creator / publisher that relies on revenue from advertising on yoru own site or is interested in building your own web traffic. This article (not mine) http://blog.fossick.com/?p=379 titled “Why I stopped using Networked Blogs on Facebook.” explains it very well. Please read and if appropriate, share with your readers.
