Blog It powered by TypePad

Facebook users have always been able to poke their friends, grow plants, throw food or keep in touch with contacts through their online profiles. Now, they can create real posts on TypePad, Twitter, Blogger, Pownce, WordPress, Movable Type and other services directly from Facebook.

Blog It, created by the team behind TypePad, is designed to bridge the gap between blogging and social networking. Besides making it easy to post to an existing blog from within Facebook, it offers the option to notify friends and contacts all over the Internet when the blog has been updated.

With so many social networking sites on the Internet, Six Apart recognizes the need to break down barriers between services – hence our involvement in the OpenID and Open Social projects, and now Blog It. Ultimately, such innovations give the user more power over their online properties.

Like all applications on Facebook, Blog It couldn’t be simpler to use. Just add it to your Facebook account, enter your account details and get blogging.
