1.) Login to Facebook

Head over to http://www.facebook.com

and login.

Since Facebook’s most recent change, “New” fan pages (those that do not contain any existing “Notes”), have to try and ‘hunt down’ the right place to find the import RSS Feed. This document shows you how to find the tricky little bugger and is accurate as of April 2010.
