What is the best way to incorporate my blog RSS feed on my Facebook profile?

Can’t seem to find an application that integrates RSS feeds very well. Ideally I’m looking for something that posts the title of my new blog post on my wall feed or in some way indicates on my wall that I’ve update my blog. The default mechanism Facebook uses to import feeds just adds updates as Notes and pushes them off to the side. Ideas?

I have a separate blog and I use the app “Simplaris Blogcast” to let my friends know I’ve updated it. Here’s the link:www.facebook.com/editapps.php#/apps/application.php?id=2344132808
It will make a story on your Wall with your blog’s entry title. It’ll say ” recently published .” It hyperlinks the title so your friends can click on it and go straight to your blog.
I haven’t updated my blog in a while (so I haven’t used the app as much), but from what I remember there are settings to where the app can automatically check your blog hourly so the story will automatically show on your Wall, or you can manually set it so that a story will print when you tell the app to share it on your Wall. Hope this helps!
I might depend on what blogging software you use. I blog onwww.freedomspress.com/ and theres a neat feature that I use which allows me to click a button when viewing my blog post so that it automatically puts that blog post on your facebook wall saying you have written a new article. Also other users can do the same thing with your posts on their wall as well.
