I am trying to do a seemingly simple thing, but having trouble accomplishing it. I am trying to automate the posting on my Facebook wall. Basically I have a ASP.NET MVC website that I post updates on, and I want to automatically submit the post to my wall.

I see a lot of stuff on FB Connect and getting data, I just want to post.

Thanks for any help or guidance.

UPDATE: Just trying to resurrect, and be a little more clear in my description as I am not getting anywhere.

I have a page that I want with a text box and a button. When I submit the form I want the message to post to my Facebook wall. I thought it was Facebook Connect, but I am getting no where as to how to automatically authenticate myself and post to my wall.

I would like to use C# rather than JavaScript.

private const string ApplicationKey = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
private const string SecretKey = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
private Facebook.Rest.Api _facebookAPI;
private Facebook.Session.ConnectSession _connectSession;

[AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)]
public ActionResult Index(FormCollection form)
{
    _connectSession = new Facebook.Session.ConnectSession(ApplicationKey, SecretKey);
    if (_connectSession.IsConnected())
    {
        _facebookAPI = new Facebook.Rest.Api(_connectSession);
        string response = _facebookAPI.Stream.Publish("This is a generated test");
    }
        return View();
    }
}

The IsConnected() is returning false. Any help is appreciated.
