If you have a FB like button on your page, or you regularly have people posting your page/site to facebook you may want to have some control over the image that displays.
I started using this a while ago when I realised FB was grabbing some images that had no relevance really to the content on the page.
On pages like our venue pages here: The Builders Club - Wollongong | Find Poker
It was grabbing the FB icon in the footer and now we are able to choose the image that is posted.
Anyway, it's all in a meta tag.
<meta content="http:// *full-path-to-image* .jpg" property="og:image">
og image is the open graph reference you can read more about here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/opengraph/
I thought of posting this after posting a link to Netfleet on FB tonight twice to have 2 different images show up.
Example of image I mean is attached.
Hope someone finds this useful.
