Came to this session a bit late since I was posting my last set of notes. This is a packed room. People are standing around the door. I just lucked out and was able to grab a chair from someone who left.
Universities are starting to use the Facebook API to add their own apps. Pen Stte has an app to search their library catalog, for instance. Allegheny has an app that lets you add your own caption to a photo of their mascot. (lolGator) Those photos can then be shared, tagged, etc like any other photo in facebook.
Facebook apps are hosted on YOUR server, not theirs. That means you need the server capacity, bandwidth, storage, etc.
The slides for this presentation are available online, so I’m not going to repeat the details of this presentation. I’ll just say that this has been the best presentation so far–including the keynote. It’s worth a few moments of your time to view the slides.
