Facebook API Developers Guide
Dear Reader,
Facebook has grown into one of the most popular web sites on the Internet boasting more
than 60 million active users. Facebook’s success began with its popularity on college and
university campuses and quickly spread into other areas when it opened the web site up
to everyone. As part of its strategic growth, Facebook developed a platform to enable its
users to leverage their own programming skills to extend the Facebook application.
The Facebook platform is comprised of a number of REST APIs and client libraries that
allow developers to quickly build their own applications for business, for communication,
and, well, just for fun. The Facebook platform has allowed community Facebook users to
develop popular applications such as Super Wall, Top Friends, and Super Poke that extend
the basic functionality of Facebook to include some additional bells and whistles.
When I was developing my first Facebook application, I discovered that not only were
there some rather gaping holes in the documentation, but the platform was also changing
so rapidly that most releases would actually “break” my application! These types of chang-
es have tapered off, and the numerous enhancements to the language make many com-
mon programming tasks much simpler. Even with some of the criticisms of the platform,
Facebook has by and large done a remarkable job in balancing its commitment to allowing
developers to create new and exciting applications while protecting its users’ privacy.
This book covers many of the important aspects of Facebook application develop-
ment, including how to set up an application, language basics, and common pitfalls.
In addition, it walks you through building a complete application that enables mul-
tiple users to share comments, reviews, and screenshots of their favorite video games.
The book closes with brief coverage of methods to monetize your application in order
to help offset your incurred server costs.
Have fun!
