Import items to your newsfeed

You can now import stories from Flickr, Picasa, Yelp, and del.icio.us into your mini-feed. It looks like Facebook is now trying to compete with Twitter to integrate non facebook sites, into the facebook platform. Harry Wang (..seriously) writes on the Facebook Blog:
The option to import stories from other sites can be found via the small “Import” link at the top of your Mini-Feed. Only a few sites—Flickr, Yelp, Picasa, and del.icio.us—are available for importing at the moment, but we’ll be adding Digg and other sites in the near future. These stories will look just like any other Mini-Feed stories, and will hopefully increase your ability to share information with the people you care about.
Perhaps we will soon be allowed to integrate Twitter into the mini-feed? This way, we can all be a bit more confused.
