Geek Balls

Who said Geeks look like geeks, some Geeks like adventure, too. This is a video which I made

And one more proof of Geeks are not so geek, I've been in Dubai Desert Rock Festival, guess what I saw there, a boy wearing MS-Geek t-shirt head banging. at once I couldn't believe it. I noticed it because I have 4 or 5 of those shirts and I spend 100 Dirhams to buy a Tshirt which suits a Rock Festival.
So, I'm still doing something big, c u later

For those who want to exercise their creativity and receive a true one to one response from users, I suggest you to write a Facebook application. (If you have the idea)

  • The Requirements:
  • 1.       Idea
  • 2.       Knowledge of programming, every IT graduate must have the knowledge otherwise he / she has cheated in the exams
  • 3.       Know the Facebook rules
  • 4.       Facebook Installed on your host or an Accelerated Facebook hosting
  • 5.       Good friends who add your application and their friends and so on
  • 6.       ....

Problems I faced at the beginning

  • 1.       I didn't know what does this means
  • "require_once '/home/-----/facebook/facebook-platform/client/facebook.php';"
  • I thought this file is on Facebook server and after hours of struggle, I found out that I have to have facebook api on my host.
  • 2.       I couldn't make it work on my own host so I used an accelerated facebook host
  • 3.       I'm a VB.net programmer and the resources for facebook .net application development were few.

4.       So I chose php, since I have learned C languages at college, it was little easy little tough to write php applications.

What amazed me in Facebook

  • 1.       Facebook animation
  • 2.       <fb swf> tag, <fb:request-form tag and all other FBML tags
  • 3.       The most amazing developer site, API and FBML Test consol, Wiki pages, ...
  • 4.       And finally how it shows the uid list. It gets uid, loads the photo, checks your network

 

This tutorial really helped understand what's going on

and the accelerated facebook host is a good startup option
