My Little Guppy is a unique Facebook application in that it allows you to create and maintain a personal blog site at a personal web address from within Facebook. As a Facebook application it can be installed easily and free by visiting http://apps.facebook.com/my-little-guppy/. You must have a Facebook account in order to use the application, but who doesn’t have one of those?

As part of the setup process you will choose a personal subdomain which will make up your new personal web site. An example would be kendyl.mylittleguppy.com. One of the most powerful aspects of the this application is that even through it is fully integrated with Facebook and allows you to share photos, videos and stories with your Facebook friends, others do not need a Facebook account or need to be your Facebook friend to view the personal web site. They can view the site just like any other web site or blog, by simply entering the Web address into their favorite browser.

Each time you create a new photo album/post a new photo and/or write a new blog entry this will be shared with your Facebook friends on their walls just like any other status update made on Facebook. Friends will see a small preview of what is new and be able to click a link over to your personal web site for the full content.

The social media aspect doesn’t end there though. When your Facebook friends install the application and build their personal blog site, their activity can be seen in a special ‘My Friends’ tab within the application and in the ‘Friends’ tab of the personal web site. It’s like a virtual play group.

Other features include:

-Easy inclusion of YouTube videos
-Password protecting your personal web site
-Visitors can make comments on your blog
-Search engines are by default blocked from indexing personal sites
and much more.
