Facebook The Missing Manual

Maybe a Facebook invitation showed up in your email inbox and you’re trying to decide whether to join the site. Maybe you were alarmed when you heard your kids mention poking each other on Facebook. Maybe the Wall Street buzz caught your attention when Facebook—a whippersnapper of a website that didn’t even exist until 2004—clocked in at a breathtaking value of $15 billion. Or maybe you’ve noticed that Facebook mentions are regularly making it into your favorite local and national news programs.

However you heard about it, everybody seems to be talking about Facebook. And for good reason: In an astonishingly short period of time, Facebook has grown from an online yearbook for college kids to an Internet
juggernaut with over 400 million members. So what is Facebook, anyway? It’s a free-to-use, wildly popular socialnetworking site—which just means it’s a way to connect with other people—that combines the best of blogs, online forums and groups, photo sharing, and much more. By tracking the connections its members
make with each other, Facebook makes it easy to find and contact people—everyone from old friends and roommates to new customers, new bosses, and even folks you’ve never met before who share your interests.

Building Facebook Applications For Dummies

Building Facebook Applications

Building Facebook Applications For Dummies serves as your no-nonsense guide to creating and designing Facebook applications. I focus on providing the essentials that you need to know to be successful. You’ll explore how to do many tasks in this book, such as these:
- Seamlessly integrate with Facebook.com using the Facebook API
- Make sense of Facebook Platform technologies, including Facebook
- Markup Language (FBML), Facebook Query Language (FQL), and
- Facebook JavaScript (FBJS)
- Migrate your existing Web application to a Facebook app
- Tap into core Facebook services, such as the News Feed and Wall
- Create mobile apps for Facebook
- Get your app noticed by Facebook users

You can create Facebook apps using many Web programming languages including PHP, Java, ASP.NET, ASP, ColdFusion, C++, C#, Python, Ruby on Rails, and more. Because it is impossible to fully cover each of these languages in any book, this book focuses on PHP in the examples. However, many of the Facebook technologies (FBML, FQL, and FBJS) are language neutral and will be implemented the same way regardless of the language used. And, in cases in which you need to call the Facebook API, you can follow
along by translating the API calls into your language of choice.
