I really like making those; two days of programming for a real social app, with (almost) every tedious management aspect handled by Facebook for you and access to millions of users (in theory). Unlike the previous app, this one has a real social component: you can compare your inkblot test answers with those of your friends, and post comments.
Either Facebook has server problems right now, though, or my app is making profiles crash occasionally. But that shouldn’t be possible. And I’m not doing anything special at all.
(Photoshopping custom inkblots — because the Rorschach Society is apparently quite lawyer-happy, and even though their copyright claims are pretty much baseless I’d like to avoid having Facebook quickly cave in and remove my application — is weiiird.)
P.S. Developing Facebook apps is great, except when Facebook startsserving errors for every page even though our server works perfectly fine.
Want to know when I post new content to my blog? It's a simple as registering for free to an RSS aggregator (Feedly, NewsBlur, Inoreader, …) and adding www.garoo.net to your feeds (or www.garoo.net if you want to subscribe to all my topics). We don't need newsletters, and we don't need Twitter; RSS still exists.
