 * I noticed that all wpbook does is post my blog on my fan page. Is there anyway
   to have facebook app post the blog as a status update that way everyone that 
   likes my fan page they will see the update?

 * The [Facebook Graph API](http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/) (
   look at the Publishing section) only defines a mechanism for publishing against
   the /feed/ or /notes/ connections to a profile.
 * But Fans of your page should see that page has posted on its wall in their news
   feed, just as they would if you manually went in an posted. See [http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=15203](http://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=15203)
 * This isn’t, however, something WPBook has any control over – we’re just using
   the APIs they make available.

 * I understand…
 * So in threory if WPbook updates my facebook app then my app in turn post the 
   blog update to my wall my fans should see the update?
 * I just want to be clear because when this update takes place it doesn’t seem 
   to show up on my personal news feed.
 * Thank you for your response by the way.

 * It doesn’t show on your personal news feed because Facebook knows you posted 
   it . . . (the access_token comes from your personal FB ID as the person who manages
   the page).
 * My understanding based on Facebook documentation is that it should also appear
   in the news feeds of fans of the page – but the algorithm FB uses to decide what
   appears in each person’s feed is proprietary – what you see in your feed is a
   subset of what could appear there, or so I’ve been told.
