I'm in the process of building a facebook app which is highly interactive. It's a game which needs a lot of AJAX updates to keep the frontend up to date.
I'm sure I'm only repeating the frustrations of every developer who's tried to create a complex facebook app, but their javascript filtering is driving me up the wall.
On the one hand I'm impressed by the competence of their engineers; it's a difficult task to pull off, allowing me to write javascript which will be executed in the context of their web pages, while stripping any malicious code out. On the other hand, writing code for the facebook platform is extremely painful due to the number of things they didn't implement. Is it my imagination or can I not create an Array object?
I'm sure I'll get there in the end. In the meantime, I'm really enjoying listening to "The Next Big Thing" by Benjamin Bates and "The Sex Has Made Me Stupid" by Robots in Disguise.
