I specially liked your take on Facebook applications. Applications on Facebook have been gaining a lot of grounds recently. But very less achieve that "viral" status. This one, featuring the Bollywood hearthrob Shahrukh Khan has that "sticky" quality about it. http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=18614975589 It is based on the recent game show going by the name of "Paannchvi Pass" (I don't remember the exact name. . . Shahrukh is God enough for me :P ) Really liked the way they have designed the application. Would like to know your thoughts on this one. Will come back to this post soon. Hey..that was a nice post.

Kind of Necessary, but definitely not Sufficient conditions for your feeds to be published to non-app users. I think a lot depends on how many feeds are being generated, and what percentage of them actually get aggregated. The possibility of aggregation is in the hands of the developer, but the number of feeds generated depends on the user base. I suggest you also go through this thread. It has experiences of many developers with feeds: http://forum.developers.facebook.com/viewtopic.php?pid=63887 Cheers, -Niraj Hi Eric,

Have you figured out a way to post feeds to non-app users or not? Thanks, Eric Hi Niraj,

]]> Comment on Facebook: Really using the Social Graph by Shailesh Kumar http://www.mobicules.com/2008/02/facebook-really-using-the-social-graph/comment-page-1/#comment-9 Shailesh Kumar Thu, 21 Feb 2008 08:47:52 +0000 http://www.mobicules.com/?p=12#comment-9 I think that facebook kind of places are good for fun applications but not really geared yet for serious collaborative applications. For any kind of serious collaborative work (between say facebook friends), usually a good amount of confidentiality and security is desired. Would a facebook application be able to provide such capabilities? A basic issue with a facebook/orkut kind of network is that the connections are of pretty generic nature. Everybody whom you have met in your past, could potentially be on your friends list and there is no framework to organize your connections based on different criteria (the way one does in ones mind). A lot of people tend to keep their collaborations secret when they work together. Would it be possible to create secret guilds of ppl inside facebook ? I think not. One could argue that web applications can be built which promote serious works of open nature (i.e. no confidentiality required). Even in such cases, a number of things are required: enabling organizational structure, conflict resolution mechanisms, information exchange frameworks for sophisticated information exchange (google docs comes to my mind) Taking another angle: Why should we need to go to facebook website to use an application? Today we are moving towards Desktop/Internet integration (See ADOBE Air and Google Gears). Why cannot we have an application sitting at our desktop which allows us to interact with my face book friends (using the Facebook API through AJAX/SOAP/JSON whatever), and utilize the capabilities of a native desktop application to enable a more richer experience? As an example, is it possible that Open Office users could collaborate with their facebook friends over the documents they are working through the Open Office application itself? Without requiring to open up a browser and visit facebook.com ? Just some ideas for thought.
