Creating the Facebook ‘Like’ button on your website/blog
by WillyFoo LiveStudios on Apr.23, 2010, under marketing, technology, wordpress
It’s much simpler than I expected! I originally wanted to leave it till i’m back home but did it in less than 5 mins..
All you need to do is to fill in the boxes to generate the code at
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like
My code looks like
<iframe src=”http://www.facebook.com/plugins/like.php?href=http%3A%2F%2Fwillyfoo.com&layout=standard&show_faces=true
&width=280&action=like&colorscheme=light” scrolling=”no” frameborder=”0″ allowTransparency=”true” style=”border:none;
overflow:hidden; width:280px; height:px”></iframe>
If you’re using WordPress, just go to Widgets and create a text widget and paste it in! Simple as that!
Update (27th Apr) : If you want to add the ‘Like’ or ‘Recommend’ button to individual blog posts, just add a plug-in.
There are a few available, I’m using http://blog.gunnjerkens.com/2010/04/facebook-like-plugin-for-wordpress/
2009 Bloggers Calendar Launch
by willyfoo on Jan.05, 2009, under marketing
The idea started when Pat Law suggested on 28th Nov that it would be cool to have a bloggers calendar and I bounced the idea off in Plurk. Soon volunteers like Daphne Maia, Claudia & Huishan offered to help to co-ordinate bloggers for the photoshoot. In just a week, we started our first photoshoot.. and everybody really enjoyed themselves with many meeting each other for the first time..
Take a look at some of the out-takes from the photoshoot.
During the photoshoot, some more really talented people like Dorothy & Darren offered to help with the design and online version respectively.
When the calendar cases arrived and I started to print the calendars, there were a lot who offered their help.. It was really sweet and really appreciated.. But we’ve designed it to be rather simple to administer.. (but thanks to dk99 for ta pau’ing me some food when I was printing) and daphne, nicole, dk99, clauds & farnelli for coming by to help print and pack the cases.

The launch was at Ice Cold Beer @ SMU and it was a really fun night of chatting, camwhoring, playing wii, pool & plurkjacking (thx).. Take a look at some of the photos that night.
Finally, here’s the online version available at http://bloggers2009.album.sg
