LOL I'm not sure what triggers something ending up in the status? I posted to the wall, thinking it woudld update the status, but no. So I deleted the wall post, cleared the status and tried again... but no. I had something I really wanted to keep at the top of the page (it may be because I included a picture???). <br><br>But, anyway, I think you're right on. I think the fan page is an awesome advertising tool and we've done well with ours. <br><br>The only ugly that I'd add to your list is that we encourage users to post photos to our wall. But if we comment on them, it assumes our personal identification and not our fan page ID. So people may or may not recognize us under our real, versus business, name. It would be nice if it automatically defaulted to your business name for any interactions you do via your fan page.<br><br>Thanks again. Hi Rachel,

I added a Facebook fan box to the home page but want to add a Facebook comments box too. However, it seems like the only way to add a comments box is to create a Facebook application that is separate from the fan/business page: <a href="http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Comments_Box" rel="nofollow">http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/C...</a> . It does not make sense that a business has to have two Facebook pages: one for the fans and one for Facebook Connect. I have added a disqus comment box to the home page but can't connect that to the fan/business page and would prefer not to create a separate Facebook application. My web site http://www.twoknobbytires.com/ has a Facebook fan/business page: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Two-Knobby-Tires/… .
