HOW TO INSTALL THE OFFICIAL FACEBOOK RECOMMENDATIONS BAR WIDGET?

In order to work the Facebook Recommendations Bar every blog should must have the Facebook Open Graphs meta tags.
I found the simplest and Working Facebook Open Graphs tags on GitHub gist. Thanks to pathawks.!

<!-- Begin Open Graph metadata -->
<b:if cond='data:blog.pageType == &quot;item&quot;'>
<meta content='article' property='og:type'/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.title' property='og:site_name'/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.pageName' property='og:title'/>
<b:if cond='data:blog.postImageThumbnailUrl'>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.postImageThumbnailUrl' property='og:image'/>
</b:if>
<b:else/>
<meta expr:content='data:blog.title' property='og:title'/>
<meta content='website' property='og:type'/>
