you like writing FaceBook notes or Blogger blogs. If you dont have a
Blogger account, you should really get one. Go to blogger.com and
create an account. Seriously it'll help you write Facebook notes
easier. You'll see why.

pues si... about ur blog
there's a few things u can do to make posting easier and more likely
to be seen/commented on by other ppl.
The Blogger community is pretty popular, and ppl will see ur blogs.
However, it is microscopic compared to the facebook community.
Although the FaceBook Notes thing is nice, it doesnt have the "test of
time" thing that blogger has. One day Facebook will probably lose
popularity, just like myspace, and there'll be something else. BUT the
beauty is that you dont have to make a "transition".
This is what you do. You merge your blogs. If you look at my facebook
profile, on the left under my friends list, you'll see my "notes" box.
You'll notice that some have a lil white paper icon, and some have an
orange logo. That orange logo means that i actually posted the blog on
Blogger, and it merged onto my FaceBook Notes application.
The beauty of doing this, is that people actually see this blog, they
comment on it (a LOT) and the 20 minutes i spend typing it up on my
iPhone don't go to waste.
To make this happen, you'll need your blogger RSS address.
Blogs (among other sites, like news sites, TV show sites, etc.) and
basically any site that gets constant updates, have an RSS feature. To
get your blogger RSS address, go see ur blog, and at the very bottom
of it, you'll see a link that says "subscribe to: Posts (Atom)"
(OR if you're using safari, there's an RSS button right next to the
address bar, and just click that.)
The URL generated is ur RSS address. Copy/paste the address. Well,
dont paste it yet, lol.
Anyway.
login to facebook, and click the applications button on that bar
that's always sitting at the bottom of the facebook homepage. Open
the notes application.
Click "my notes" at the top.
Now, there'll be a blue box on the right that says "Notes Settings".
Click on the "import a blog" link in there.
Now paste ur RSS address from before into the thingy, make sure u have
the checkbox checked, and click "OK" or whatever it says.
Yay you're done with that. Sometimes it takes a few minutes for the
blog to merge.. like when u post on blogger, it might take even like
15 minutes for it to show on facebook, but it will.
NEXT thing we gotta do.
Go BACK into your blogger. Sign in. Go to settings.
There's a Tab there that says "Email & Mobile" open that.
Under "Posting options" put a "secret word" in pastorlipe.blabla@blogger.com
and clik the "publish emails immediately" option. Then at the bottom
clik save settings.
Now go to ur address book in both yahoo.com and in your phone, and add
an email contact, like if you were adding a person. Label this person
"Blogger" and, the email will be pastorlipe.blabla@blogger.com
whenever u send an "email" to this "person", it'll post as a new blog,
in blogger.com AND in facebook notes. YAY!!
