Facebook StreamFeed beta

Welcome to StreamFeed!

Don't leave Facebook without your data! StreamFeed is an open-source data portability tool that allows you to export your Facebook activity stream into popular syndication formats like RSS and Atom, by way of the new Facebook Open Stream API. It's written in PHP by Nato Welch.

StreamFeed attempts to strike an appropriate and elegant balance between privacy, security, and data portability. StreamFeed stores ZERO private user information on the server; everything is encoded into the authentication credentials embedded in the feed URLs. This makes the use of cookies or other tracking methods unnecessary.

StreamFeed offers Facebook activity streams in:

Other syndication formats will be available in the future.

StreamFeed URLs are usable in any news reader that supports HTTP authentication. Simply copy the URLs on the links listed above, and enter them into your news reader. Keep them private, as they grant access to private information. Please note that without the authentication credentials (appearing before the '@' in the URL), the URLs will not work. One consequence of this is that you won't always be able to subscribe to the feeds directly in your browser, unless you add them explicitly.
