I'm a brand new member of this board so if you've already heard of this, and I've posted to the wrong area, please forgive me. I'm hoping that this is something really cool and useful for folks here.

Thanks for the link. I have been reading up on Facebook apps.

I looked into the apps as well. There are just so many low quality (in terms of gameplay) MMOs on facebook that I think they really give the industry a bad name...however, Facebook is like a perfect platform for these games, especially since people are already online with all their friends.

Do you know of any light version of MMO source code for facebook? This one is a bit fat. I would love to see some simple login/register/logout (whatever it is handled there) + click one button to get one gold example

Just want to say welcome, Triptych . It's good to have you.

That's a remarkably good article... it's the size of a book. Very valuable stuff.

I'm going to be pretty mad if there is suddenly a few hundred Farmville variants...lol
