As you know, a lot of bigger news websites have intorduced "social readers" for Facebook (e.g. https://apps.facebook.com/wpsocialreader/), which log what the user has read into the activity stream ("Michael read..."). Is it possible to integrate similar functionality into a Wordpress blog? Are the relevant API's open? Are there any plugins available? Thanks.
UPD: http://trac.ahwebdev.fr/projects/facebook-awd
The plugin seems to do the trick. Will have to try it out!
Yep, all of the APIs required to recreate the WashPo Reader or the Guardian reader etc are open, so it shouldn't be an issue to implement it for Wordpress.
Here's the relevant docs - https://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
i am the creator of Facebook AWD.
From now to get actions publishing working with Facebook AWD and wordpress you must buy a subplugin.
This process will take place with the v1.3 of Facebook AWD
Update: The plugin is ready here: http://facebook-awd.ahwebdev.fr/plugins/opengraph-actions/
Came across this post while searching for something related. Anyone still thinking of integrating Social read with any blog or website can simply use this plugin(For non-developers or for developers who just want to use a ready made solution)..

I'm trying to add a section of my site where my visitors can read all the latest posts from a company's twitter and facebook.
Twitter was really easy to implement, but now I am stuck at trying to find a solution to implement the latest facebook post.
I've looked on the facebook dev site as well searched on google, but most answers suggest fetching RSS feeds or other stuff that facebook no longer supports.
Does anyone know of how to do this? Is it even possible anymore?
I know this is an old post, but maybe this will help someone.
I found this option:
Use the facebook page plugin. Instructions are here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin
I have a hosted wordpress site that I currently have set up with the Facebook for wordpress plugin to post to my facebook page (not profile). This is kind of essential for me as I post a lot and it saves me a ton of time.
Another thing that would save me a lot of time is a decent auto-schedule plugin for wordpress. I tried Auto-Schedule posts which I love, but to add a post to the queue I have to "publish" it. It then takes the post and queues it until the set parameters are fulfilled.
The only problem is that when I publish the page to enter the queue, it sends it to my facebook page. Is there any workaround for this? Another plugin for scheduling anyone knows of that avoids this? I am reasonably knowledgeable about coding if a coding solution is available, I just don't know much about how the Facebook application works. So if there's any kind of edit I can make to the Auto Schedule Posts plugin that'd be cool.
Thanks!
I just released this plugin to have a very simple way of auto-queueing posts: http://wordpress.org/plugins/queue-posts
Hope it will be of help to to some of you! :)
Recently, I had a client send me a screenshot of what appeared to be a LinkedIn Plugin. I asked the client where they got it from, but they couldn't remember, but wanted me to replicate it on their new site... I've looked all over and couldn't seem to find anything exactly like this. I am not very well-versed when it comes to LinkedIn, so the answer may be right under my nose.
Would anyone out there know where I can find this?

I've looked through http://developer.linkedin.com/plugins, but couldn't find anything that had 'Latest Discussions' or 'Most Popular'.
The screenshot you've attached looks like a custom API integration emulating the widget that is found in LinkedIn hosted groups on LinkedIn.com. There are no LinkedIn-supported plugins available that can provide this functionality at this time. From the forums, a post from a LinkedIn employee:

Agorava LinkedIn is an connector to LinkedIn for Agorava. And Agorava Socializer also supports LinkedIn beside other popular social networking services like Facebook or Twitter.
I am trying to create a bookmarklet to process some Facebook data about my contacts, what will possibly require to load another profile pages and see who my friends are.
I am trying to know which urls should I query to get this information. And also how to interact with FB's UI libraries and/or elements.
Is there any documentation for this?
You probably are looking for Facebook JavaScript SDK.
Here is documentation on the FB.ui(): http://fbdevwiki.com/wiki/FB.ui
EDIT: it's updated by user contributions and lately it hasn't been changed much
Is there any plugin or way to post on my facebook wall directly from my website?
(There are plugins available for WordPress. But mine is not a blog site).
Thanks in advance
Facebook has a full REST api, so you should be able to use it from any language. If you are using PHP you could look at what the wordpress plugin is doing and then replicate that for your page. Otherwise you probably should look at the SDK information for facebooks api processes and then just call them however you need from your site.
There's a comments widget.
