How to give your Facebook Notes a face lift?! by @butterknife_sm

At ButterKnife, we have a rule. When we find cool stuff that helps social media efforts, we share it... We don’t keep secrets, because, believe it or not, we want to see everyone succeed.
The latest cool thing has to do with Facebook Notes. There are tons of Facebook users that write notes; and one of the most annoying things in writing notes, as opposed to writing blogs, is that you don’t have a lot of design options while writing notes. Bolding your title or underlining important stuff is more or less it. Forget about adding a video, or enlarging a word. Those of you who write notes are probably nodding your head by now :) Facebook notes
You want to know something? You can make your notes look as good as a blog post, with a bit of work and behind-the-scenes magic. Facebook gives you all the HTML tags you can use on your note - the
Facebook Notes Cheatsheet.

All you need to do, is to copy the tags that you want to use from the Facebook Notes Cheatsheet, and presto! Your notes will look much better. No, you don’t need to know HTML. Just copy and paste, and away you go!
So save the
Facebook Notes Cheatsheet, and the next time you write a note - open it, and have fun.
Just a tip - if you use an HTML tag like <big>. for example, which enlarges the text, you can paste the same tag a few times - it will enlarge the text more. How? Instead of using <big> once at the beginning of the test you want to enlarge, use as many as you want <big><big><big> your text and don’t forget to close it 3 times as well with </big></big></big>
Don’t forget to preview your note before you publish it, so you can see the effects for yourself :)
If you have questions feel free to ask … here or on our
Facebook  page or send us a message on our website

Good luck …
