How to make a Facebook comment box for your blog.

I am planning to make a blog wherein the Facebook comment box is installed so that readers of my Facebook fan page can directly comment on my posts. The problem is, I don't have any idea about this plugin from this social networking site.

Can someone show me the step by step process of installing comment box to my blog?

Thanks.

To add the Comments Box to your site, follow these simple instructions:

1. First, set up a basic Connect application. Take note of the API key and specify a callback URL to your website.

2. Then download this cross-domain receiver file, and upload it to your website.

3. After that, add these snippets of code to each file where you want a Comments Box.
a. Within the <html> tag, add this code: xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml
b. Add the following code wherever you want a Comments Box to appear in your page. Replace "'YOUR_API_KEY_HERE''' with your API key, and include the path to the cross-domain receiver.

That's it; your Comments Box is ready.
