In this tutorial you will be learning how to post on facebook from almost anywhere. Sick and tired of "posted via iPhone"? Would you rather it be "posted via (insert random item here)"? This is how! I suppose it's not much of a tutorial though, rather an explanation of sorts.

Things to know


  • Every person and application has an ID number
  • "api_key=" is labeling the application
  • "target_id=" is labeling who the message will be sent to


Formats

Use this link template to post your own status. Simply replace the "123456789" with an application ID.

Use this link template to write on a friends wall. Simply replace the "123456789" for target_id with your friends ID number and replace the "123456789" for api_key with an application ID.

I think that's about all I got. Enjoy freaking out your friends!

IMO, this is the best way to try it out - "I dont always post statuses, but when I do, I prefer to do it via (insert whatever you're posting from here)
