zenFBRecommend Plug-in

zenFBRecommend adds a Facebook generated "Recommendations" box based on the content of your site. This box has both a light and dark theme, as well as removable header for clean site integration. It is accomplished by loading Facebook's Javascript SDK allowing parsing of XFBML for social site integration.
