My Facts – first Facebook application.

Posted on August 23rd, 2007 by Alex Gorbatchev. In Web Development. No comments yet...

I just finished my first Facebook application called My Facts. Basically, it allows you to post a quick fact on your profile page and find out who of your friends knew it and who didn’t.

Took me a couple of days to figure it out. The Facebook API is pretty amazing. I’m especially impressed by the total sandboxing of hosted applications. The styles, the JavaScript, everything gets sandboxed. It’s pretty amazing as a platform.

The hardest part was simply learning the FBML and figuring out what works and what doesn’t.
