Facebook has RSS. No, seriously, it does!

Dennis, David and I all think facebook is a data black hole. All of my data gets sucked in, but nothing can really come out of it. Until now!

I don't know if this is a new feature, or if it's just something I stumbled upon, but...

You can get a feed of all your friends' posted items from this page, once you've logged in. And you can get a feed of your friends' status updates over yonder, again, once you're logged in.

I sure would like RSS for the news feed, but I only have 27 friends. I guess that news feed would get overwhelming if I had 50 or more friends.

Are there any other RSS feeds in facebook?

    Ben, I'm not sure how useful this is -- my preference would be a feed by group.

    There should be a feed for every page. I think it's all about page views for facebook. How else can this be explained?
