Don't forget that they also want you to declare some schemas to the html tag - specifically the open graph one via xmlns:og="http://opengraphprotocol.org/schema/. OG is based on RDFa which adds the additional attributes to the meta tags.
Once you're done with that, be sure to add your fb:like - <fb:like href="http://developers.facebook.com/" width="450" height="80"/> - the example is pretty straightforward. Don't forget to add xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml" otherwise you will be sad
