If you were to turn your blog into a Facebook app, what features would it have? What would the UI look like? What are the significant dealbreakers you’d need to satisfy to extend your blog to a social networking platform?
I’m marking this as a community wiki because I’m not looking for one answer, but for an array of “best practices” that developers should consider when taking their blog online through a social network. One feature/UI element/dealbreaking necessity per answer please.
My number 1 feature would be to have the ability to use WordPress to manage a fan page.
It would have to have the ability to use a WordPress page to create a Facebook page application tab.
Published posts would auto publish to the Facebook wall and comments would sync between WordPress and Facebook.
It would be nice to be able to manage your facebook “/pages/city/companyX” page from one WordPress install (instead of coding a seperate solution see e.g. http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rational/tutorials/r-face/) this would enable customers (who all want to be on facebook) to have more or less one entry to manage things.
My number 1 feature would probably be statistics overview in the wordpress dashboard. So that the customer can check the progress of the internet strategy.
