Hi,
I'm building a chat system for a company and I'm wondering as to what the best way to build the system would be?
The current setup we have is a Nginx HTTP Server with PHP and Memcacheq (as a message queue that appends the chat messages to the user's own queue). We then poll the Nginx server (through a Comet style request) and query the message queue for updates.
Is it a good idea to use a message queue such as Memcacheq to handle a chat system that has both user-to-user and site-wide chat or is it best to just stick to MySQL?
Thanks!
Facebook has around 1B user profiles. They can be found by searching in Google. However, I don't think these profiles are linked from anywhere, so how could Google discover them?
As far as I know, sitemaps are not enough for that (http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/a/5151), as all URLs should be crawlable anyway.
I ask the question as I also have a site with user profiles and would like to make them discoverable.
I'm managing a video blog.
The blog contains a main youtube video on the homepage and several thumbnail images of other videos elsewhere.
I have a share button for the main page and the single posts pages and have added opengraph to specify the used image.
For some reason facebook ignores my opengraph image and uses othe images it finds in the page...
the header looks like this: (for the homepage)
<!-- Facebook Opengraph -->

A couple of the various Linux photo organizer applications (Shotwell & f-spot, at least) let you upload pictures to Facebook, but as far as I can see, that's limited only to albums on your personal page. Am I just missing something, and it is actually possible to use either Shotwell or f-spot to upload to albums in a page you are an administrator for? If not, is there another Picasa-type program that has this feature?
In the setup dialog for the Like-Button, there are only two options for layout:
Unfortunately, the numbers for the website of my employer is nowhere near 22'000, so the powers that be have decided that we should not show the number of "likes" until said number is a little more in our favour. As far as I know, I don't have access to the layout of the button through Javascript or CSS (it's in an iframe served by facebook). Are there any other ways to hide the count?
I'm trying to do a simple API call with facebook, with a user-given email to return their uid. Do I really need to auth them before this call is made?
Thanks! :) I'm not doing anything else with the UID besides displaying to the user, which is why I don't really think it's worth authenticating them.
Hello,
I am curious if there is any article/ library / anything useful that is built for the newly announced Facebook Graph API. I am planning to use it for a Python/Django project.
Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to add a Fan button to a Facebook page (right next to the company name - I've seen this done on a few pages, see for example: http://bit.ly/briOvF ). I've added the FBML application though can't find a great deal of information on the code required for the actual button and then how to place the button on the page. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Many thanks.
After prompting the user for the login and submitting it's details, my application appears in the facebook lightbox instead of the browser window.
This is not the case when I remove the SWFAddress params (all the info after the hash in the URL bar).
Is it possible to tell the API to ignore the info after the hash or is there a way i can determine the redirect URL myself?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
I have a fanpage which has a tab/facebook application, that renders some info from my server

PS. the Application that I want to have inside the popup is going to ask to login first and if logged in show for for inviting friends
Is it possible to change the color of text in a Facebook like button? Besides selecting a different color scheme, I don't see a way to adjust the font...
Hi guys, I am creating a little flash game for the facebook platform, but I am finding it very difficult to get any decent documentation on the graph api, so if anyone has a decent resource for a beginner to go and learn the basics, I would appreciate it very much, as I am struggling to grasp the concept.
Thanx!
I can't seem to find how to do geo targeting (filtering a post based on the location of a user) on facebook using their API.
Does anyone already managed to do it?
This is how you can do it via their interface:
Hi,
strangely , lately when I'm trying to retrieve comments with the old facebook api I can get only the latest 50.
And I didnt see any paging option there.
And it doesnt matter if I use stream.getcomments or directly FQL .
The weird thing is that using the same fql with the new api gives me all the comments.
got a clue?
I just need a php based script for my website where in i have a textbox and a button and whatever i write into it gets posted into my facebooks wall ..

how do i code a facebook quote application taking its data from php/mysql page generating quotes randomely? i've already developed one, but it's using jquery which fbml doesn't support and since i'd like the profile tab i'd rather go for fbml instead of iframe.
anyone have any ideas on how to do this without jquery or using fbjs? thanks!
Hello,
When using the "Connect" facebook connect button, when I click it, it opens up a new popup window outside of the current window. This is quite annoying, how am I able to use the inline modal dialog that is found on most sites?
I've attached a sample site to see if you can make anything out of it.

Thank you.
Hello,
I am using FacebookConnect on the iPhone to integrate my app with Facebook.
Unfortunatly I've always "cookies required" when trying to login.
Are you also encountering this issue or do you know what may cause this issue?
Thanks in advance for your help :)

Hi all,
I've built an iframe based facebook application. In my application I use http handler. I need to access information from the api.
What would be the best way to do so?
For some reason, facebook's safe_image.php script isn't generating thumbnails, properly. It's generating a 1x1 image... even though the correct image is linked in the script's parameters.
Example:
<img class="img" alt="" src="https://s-external.ak.fbcdn.net
/safe_image.php?d=AQBtrCt_Es_KsED0&w=90&h=90&url=http%3A%2F
%2Fwww.southlapatriots.info%2Fimages%2FScamra%2FJayCastilleCouncil2.jpg"
The linked image is correct, but it is still only generating a 1x1 image.
