InspirACTION

Another double episode – encompassing installments 115 and 116. The second video below is a short tutorial on how to invite or message your entire Facebook friends list with the click of a button! This will work for events, groups, and Fan pages as well!

But first, I have a confession to make… please watch the video below… because this is certainly the most *raw* message I’ve ever put out there on InspirACTION. You want to talk transparency and authenticity? Forget the talk, let me show you:

Now, you might be here because you’re more interested in learning this cute little trick I keep talking about so here it is. I’ve got the written instructions and javascript code under the video just below:

How to Message Your Entire Facebook Friends List in Seconds

1. Start by creating a new event.

2. Set the start and end dates a couple months out so that the event stays open and available for later use.

3. Disable the wall and the viewable guest lists so that you won’t get any notifications.

4. Select “Invite people to come” underneath the event thumbnail.

5. The screen will pop up where you can begin clicking and selecting friends for your event. This is where you take the javascript below and paste it into your browser bar as shown in the video. Here is the script you need to copy and paste.

javascript:elms=document.getElementById(‘friends’).getElementsByTagName(‘li’);for(var fid in elms){if(typeof elms[fid] === ‘object’){fs.click(elms[fid]);}}

Click enter on your keyboard – wait a few seconds for everyone to become highlighted. My old computer used to take up to 30 seconds to finish the operation so don’t fret if things freeze up for a moment!

6. Once everyone has been selected, you can now send invitations to your entire list for the event you just created.

7. Here’s where it gets really awesome! Now, with the event created, you can select “Message Guests” and now you have the ability to shoot a message to your entire list through this semi-perpetual event!

8. The same code and javascript trick will work to invite your list to groups and Fan pages as well.

Hope this helps! Enjoy! If you have a moment, I’d appreciate it if you invited your friends to the InspirACTION Fan Page. After all, it wouldn’t hurt to practice before you go ahead and do it on your own right? Thanks!
