Updated Facebook Apps!
The work is all done! Now you can add your WorldCat Facebook application and the CiteMe application to your Facebook profile in your Wall or in the Boxes tab of your profile.
I put mine in the side bar of my Wall as you can see below (or friend me to see it all!).
Or you can put this into your Boxes tab:
To add these applications to either your Wall or your Boxes tab, go to the Edit applications screen. If you look back to my post from last week, you'll see some instructions for getting to the Edit applications screen. Then you click the "Edit" link to get this settings window. Click profile and then you can add the applications to your Wall or Boxes:
After you add the application, you should see it on the left-hand side of your Wall or at the bottom of your Boxes page. Make sure you check both.
I hope this helps you! Please post a comment to this message if you have problems added these applications. Or post a message to the WorldCat in Facebook application discussion page and the CiteMe application discussion page.

This is really cool. Has anyone been working with www.goodreads.com to integrate a Worldcat plug in? That is the area where my friends and I are always finding new books and determing what we are going to read next, and I must admit that I tire of tabbing back and forth between my goodreads page and my library's catalog.
Naturally, Goodreads has a plug in for Facebook, so the two can be used through that one portal, but it would be nice to find a way to search Worldcat through Goodreads as well.

Natalie,
You can't search WorldCat from GoodReads, but the folks added a link to WorldCat in their "find at ..." links. So you can link to the item in WorldCat right from the item page in GoodReads.
