It is top secret, but I am working on another Facebook application. This time I am using Ruby On Rails since I don’t have to deal with legacy issues. I’ll be interested to see if there is a large performance difference. I’ll post a link when the application is ready. This time it will be…
My Wife is Better Than Your Wife
It really is true. My wife IS better than your wife. Want proof? Here it is: [![Panasonic Plasma TV – TH-58PZ700U][2]][2] 58” of pure Panasonic Plasma goodness and she wanted it as much as I did. Ya, my wife is better than yours. (I’ll post some install info later on.)
Complaning About Perspective
I love NPR. I was listening to it last night on the way home and Will Bowen of Christ Church Unity was on talking about his no complaint for 21 days program and the purple bracelets he passes out to help people to remember not to complain. This morning on my way in they were…

rFacebook and redirect_to

Right now we are trying to integrate our conference application – 51weeks.com with Facebook so that our users can take advantage of existing social networks instead of having to create yet another network at he conference they are attending….
Quick Note About rFacebook, Edge Rails, and Sessions.
This problem may not be specific to rFacebook, but when I added acts_as_facebook_user to my user model and then made a call like: my_user.first_name </pre> I would get an 500 internal server error. I checked the log and saw this: CGI::Session::CookieStore::CookieOverflow I found that if I changed the app so that it uses db sessions…
