Adobe Flash API for Facebook
(Posted on 31-Mar-09)Adobe has "Official API for Facebook". This is big news... not as big as who is the next president to inherit the last president's work. Yet, it is very big just the same! There is also an official section on Adobe DevNet! http://www.adobe.com/devnet/facebook/
What does this offer? Well it has instructions that show how to build apps for iFrame, FBML, Flash iFrame, Flash FBML, External Flash and Flash Facebook applications. You may not know the difference between all these applications but it will support all of these! If you are looking to build a social application it is great that some of the core work has been done. Consider this like going to build a house and you have to grind your own rocks for cement, cut your own trees down for wood and the whole thing from scratch. This new API is like a set of common tools to build in or with the world of Facebook. Check it out! (Oh, Flex is built on Flash so this includes you web and AIR developers also!)
