« Managing Facebook Content - Blog Excerpts »

One of the tricks I’ve got to accomplish, regardless of where the lines eventually get drawn on the Facebook content licence drama is to be able to publish blog excerpts only into Facebook… as opposed to the entire article.

Two good things would come out of this:

1. I manage to control more of the content that falls into the Facebook basket
2. I drive more traffic to *my* site here instead of folks just staying on Facebook.

Now, let’s see if I can make this chicken fly.

One way to do this is to burn your feed in Feedburner and use the FeedBurner version of the feed in Facebook. FeedBurner allows you to control the size of your excerpts.

thanks Ed!!! I was futzing around with the excerpt options on my blog platform, and facebook still kept sucking everything in...
I'm going to use the feedburner option!
