How to Insert Facebook Badges Into Entourage Email Signatures
Facebook offers several HTML "badges" that users can place on their personal websites. These badges contain links to the user's profile and the latest status update. While these badges are specifically designed and intended for use on the web, the fact that they are HTML-based allows them to be used in any email signature that allows HTML. In Entourage, Microsoft's email client for the Mac operating system, users can put a Facebook badge in their signatures by creating a new HTML signature, and inserting the code into the signature box.
