Simple Social provides several points of integration between Plone and Facebook.  Simple Social lets your site visitors promote a Plone page directly to their Facebook wall, lets people follow your Facebook Page via a Facebook Fan Box, and provides the foundation for custom integrations.

Here's a quick demonstration of Simple Social in action:

Simple Social Features

Promote a Page

Using the power of the Facebook Connect API, Simple Social prompts your site visitors to publish and promote pages within a Plone website directly to their own Facebook profiles. Users can add a comment to go along with the publishing. This makes it very easy for you, and more importantly your site visitors, to spread information about your organization.

Facebook Fan Box

Simple Social for Plone makes it easy to publish a Facebook Fan Box on your website. What's a Fan Box you ask? It's a great way to promote your Facebook presence directly on your website. The Fan Box shows others who is following your Facebook Page, lets them read recent wall posts, and offers site visitors the chance to become a fan with the click of a button.

Custom Integration

If you have some technical chops of your own, Simple Social ships with a foundation for creating your own custom integrations using Facebook's custom markup language XFBML and/or the Facebook Javascript API.
