Getting my FanPage wall feed without Application using .NET

I would like to show the latest updates from my fan page wall on my blog using .NET (C#/VB).

After reading Facebook Graph API Docs I understand that I need access_token to make this call - The problem is that I don't want to ask every visitor to approve any kind of Facebook App just to read the updates feed.

I think it's possible because I noticed that Wibiya's Toolbar show's wall feed without asking permissions but somehow, they got access_token to make this call.

Can someone help me to crack this mystery or just telling me what is the best way to achieve this?

Please don't offer me the ordinary Facebook widget.

Another possible answer is to simply use the RSS feed for the fan page - If you look at the bottom left of any "Fan page" you will the following links:

* Create a Page
* Add to My Page's Favorites
* Subscribe via RSS
* Report Page
* Share

The Facebook fan page RSS feed looks something like this:

http://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?id=FACEBOOK-ID&format=rss20

So if I wanted to read the Coca Cola Facebook fan page (id: 40796308305), you could simply use:

http://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?id=40796308305&format=rss20

There are no 'Social Plugins' that I know of, that allow you to display your facebook fan page status updates, like the twitter widget does. (afaik)

Found the solution, We can approach it by using FQL Queries.

SELECT source_id,post_id,actor_id,target_id,message,comments,likes,attachment,created_time,permalink FROM stream WHERE source_id=me()LIMIT 0,15

I hope you will find it helpful.
