I got one of our crack developers on the case, and the result is http://apps.facebook.com/virginradio/ in case anyone wants to take a look. We're quite pleased with it, but it's certainly a work in progress. Works best if you're already registered at virginradio.co.uk but still works fine if not. Three days' development, I think.

I've not made an app yet, but I've become a pretty avid user of Facebook recently and have tried out a few apps. The problem at the moment seems to be that some of the popular apps (the Flickr one for instance) are developed by part timers and run off cheap shared hosting accounts. Not usually a problem for a mashup, but with the ridicious popularity of Facebook these limitations seem to be the cause errors and malfunctioning all over the show. Not very good. Seems they need to get with thier developer relations.

Anywho I was wondering what everyone thought about the sudden explosion of facebook applications, and whether anyone had written one, who is a member of this list. In light of the face we have just been talking about Google developer day, which I could not attend… Yours, --------------------------------------------------------------- Barry Carlyon Student Radio Association Regional Rep.
