The Blogfuse Facebook App Creator is compatible with any blog that has a RSS feed, including MySpace, Wordpress, Drupal, Blogger, LiveJournal and Xanga.  

Blogfuse are heavily pushing the viral-factor and have implemented the means for users to share individual posts with friends, and Blog owners can pre-set the joining process to prompt application users to invite their friends. 

The application looks and feels like a Facebook-owned application (see right), which may encourage bigger adoption to similar services avaialable.

Aimed at the professional blogger, the cost of using the Blogfuse Facebook App Creator ranges from $5 to $30 per month, which includes the application hosting costs (directly hosted with Blogfuse).

With the recent introduction of Facebook Ads (which allows brands to create a Facebook profile and build a community of "fans"), the Blogfuse Facebook App Creator provides yet another avenue for those brands looking to connect with their audience online.

Facebook have a reported global user-base of 58 million.
