I think it is impossible to do that from personal sites but if you want to stream corporate sites then you just go their wall, use the rss function of you browser and copy paste the link you get from there.

go to http://1dim-giann.pel.sch.gr and look at the bottom the stream of facebook page for the school. I am using also my own css for the block . If this is what you want I can help you.

I just set this up and it was actually really easy - well, apart from the initial digging around through mostly nonexistent documentation part. :-)

What you need to do to get the activity from a page is use the format http://apps.facebook.com/minifeed.php?status&id=[page id number], where [page id number] is the number that appears in the URL of the page.

So for example if the page URL is:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/YourCity/Your-Company-Name/123456789000?v=...

Your feed URL would be:
http://apps.facebook.com/minifeed.php?status&id=123456789000

Put that in as the feed URL, and then just make sure you run cron as that's what picks up the entries.

PS, if your page doesn't seem to have an ID -- say, http://www.facebook.com/carnegiehall -- then you can use the graph api to find it.

Just go to graph.facebook.com/carnegiehall and the response will include the ID first.
