Networked Blogs Verification

If you don’t like going deep into this, stop reading here.

I tried getting the blog part of Haagsche Suites verified for Networked Blogs. To that extent I placed Networked Blogs’ widget in this post, but it didn’t help verify….

Networked Blogs is a Facebook app. (an app. is an application), a way of sharing your blog via Facebook. With it you will be able to pull the feed of a blog into your Facebook Fanpage.

There are two ways of verification. One is to put their widget in your blog. The other is asking 10 Facebook contacts to vouch that they know you as the author of your blog. However, I tried placing the the Facebook here as a post to verify. That didn’t work. The widget needs to be in the sidebar. However I had hacked the sidebar code in order to have the “Book A Suite Now!” widget appearing in I the main body of the site….

Update
Because it didn’t work as I had hoped, I bothered some of my Facebook Friends with a request for verification. Some obliged. But I became a bit impatient as it didn’t go as fast as I wished.

Today (May 7, 2010) I worked around it. I replaced the widget code with the old version, put the widget into the sidebar. went to the App and clicked verification. Verification was granted. Then I went to FB Haagsche Suites and pulled the feed in. Job finished.
