Facebook and Ruby on Rails

Facebook is (not) yet another social networking portal, that easily eclipses (ugh!) Orkut.

And this session was about how you would develop a Facebook application, and how you would host it. This was from the perspective of Ruby on Rails. Towards the end we got to see some code. Abhijit, who presented this, has developed his own application for facebook and he had all the right means to edify his audience, but time was short unfortunately.

So what i have gathered is just figments, but what you would like to look at is the developers section of facebook.

I googled this step by step guide- http://developers.facebook.com/step_by_step.php

Facebook has an official Java Library, And some other unofficial libraries of which RoR is one.

A good platform to showcase your ideas.
