I have stepped into the social world of Facebook and have become intrigued as to how to write an application for Facebook. I have a number of questions surrounding this.
1. What will the application be and what should it do?
2. How do I start? Where is the ‘Create application’ button?
3. How do I test my application
4. How do I advertise my application
I should confess, that I did not come up with all these questions before I started and I have been partially influenced by a colleague and friend on this little adventure. The big pluses are, I get to play with PHP again, I get to mess on Facebook and I get to hassle folk to squish and upload photo’s (time to step up Lee!). I just love this language for messing on the web with.
I shall blog on this over the coming weeks but the my application is based around GeoSquishing. If you have not tried GeoSqushing and gone out and ’squished’ something, shame on you. Go now and try it. Its fun and a great way to strike up converstation as people may wonder what the heck you are doing. For novel ideas, browse GeoSquishing.com. Wee and Higgi have come up with some novel ways to squish things.
