Drupal for Facebook
Session Description
The Drupal for Facebook project aims to make Drupal the premier environment for developing Facebook Applications.
In this talk, I’ll briefly introduce what a Facebook Application is, and demonstrate how a simple app is created using Drupal for Facebook. I gave a similar presentation at DrupalCon Barcelona.
Drupal for Facebook is a new project but already provides quite a bit of functionality. Anyone considering developing a Facebook App should give it a trial run. We’re looking to build community and add more features.

Demo Plan
Fri, 11/02/2007 - 12:31 — Dave CohenDuring this session, I plan to talk about what Drupal for Facebook is, what Facebook Applications are, and show a live demo. The demo app is available for preview. If you’re deciding whether or not to attend this session, I recommend you take a look and see if this is something that interests you.
Support for OpenSocial
Thu, 11/01/2007 - 19:30 — dkruglyakOne more discussion topic is how to support OpenSocial, ideally with the same module as Facebook. API is coming up soon, presumably will be posted here: http://code.google.com/apis/opensocial
There was lots of discussion of what it is and why this is important. A good backgrounder is put together by Marc Andressen here – http://blog.pmarca.com/2007/10/open-social-a-n.html
We should at least talk about this at BADCamp…

Seeking ideas for a Drupal for Facebook demo
Mon, 10/22/2007 - 15:23 — Dave CohenEarlier this year I demonstrated Drupal for Facebook. In that demo, I built a very simple blog site in Drupal, and I showed how to expose the same content in Facebook. The result was a very simple Facebook application in which anyone who installed the app could post to their own blog. And the blog posts would appear on their facebook profile.
