Q: 

Publishing news feeds automatically

Hello,

I have a website which generates hourly updates to users. I want to allow these updates to show up as News feeds in Facebok. I opened a Facebook Connect application. Through my site I receive the extended persmission to post news to the users' news feeds.

My question is can I automatically post news feeds to these users without them being logged in to my site? That is, sending hourly news feed to all users using a cron job.

Thanks,

Joel

But you will need to use the new oauth authentication instead of facebook connect.
