CREATION OF A FACEBOOK APP: DAY 1
JANUARY 30, 2008
Well, not really Day 1. But Day 1 of digging deep into the code and trying to get data to and fro. From where I sit now, I’d call it a successful day. There were and are definitely bumps in the road, but for the most part, I’m finding this process very enjoyable.
It’s not super difficult, I am just having to learn where to look for the answers I need. Facebook has done a great job with documentation and developer tools. So I have been using those to my advantage as much as possible.
Looking ahead, I see more data rigmarole. Once the data transfer is ironed out I’ll have to start answering interface questions. Thankfully Facebook has some solid standards and conventions that I can take advantage of. If anyone out there has experience building a Facebook application, drop me a note in the comments, I’d love to commiserate.
