- dustinmacdonald, on 10/10/2007, -0/+19You're far too generous.
- DiggerRich, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11It's true. Although the positives are obvious, the downside is you get 80% of garbage and 20% of actual good apps.
- MalDON, on 10/10/2007, -2/+10It's Facebook, not FaceBook.
- wmarkusen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Thank you for overlooking the shameless self promotion... :-) I fully admit to it. I'm glad you like my site.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+9Time flies like an arrow. Fruit flies like a banana.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Gee, thanks a bunch, Groucho.
- stevedclarke, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Don't know why you're being dugg down. Thats _exactly_ what pisses me off about the applications.
- SuperMoses, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3People deleted their myspace accounts for facebook because myspace sucked balls. Myspace wasn't a fad, it was just the only friends networking site people knew about, once other ones came out and competed (ex: Facebook), MySpace was no longer relevant.
- johnnysaucepn, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3And you do not like green eggs and ham?
- useful, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3atrocities like geocities and myspace will just repeat themselves over and over for the next 20 years
- Klarth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Digg isn't tailored to your interests alone, kiddo.
- digboy99, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Let me get this straight. I can write an application and deploy it to 30 million users, and be dependent on another company for the quality of the experience. Or, I can deploy it to the whole internet and have virtually complete control. I will pick door #2.
- Klarth, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Most diggers hate humour and gratify themselves by crushing anything remotely resembling glee.
- daridave, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I agree. I like to keep my page clean... I have very basic things in it, such as my Xbox Live gamer card... I think I have 4-5 apps installed, that's it. However I know some people who have a dozen, they have 4 different variations of the "wall" and it's just f'ing STUPID... but try to tell them!
- saifatlast, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Does the message ID really have to be so long? You could start off with something shorter, then make it a larger field as users grow (or recycle them or something).
Also, it's kind of a strange concept, but I guess a good novelty. - euro22, on 12/17/2008, -0/+2Shameless self promotion aside, thats a pretty nice site. Original and well executed. Well done.
- Aezarath, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3"Developers CAN quickly implement a new application and launch it to 30 million users."
If only the wouldn't. They usually do end up sending the freaking app requests if not to all 30 million at least a good 25. - judsond, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This only makes sense if the types of applications are the same. They're not. An "application" that tracks which places in the world I have been to and, say I dunno Firefox don't really share much in common.
- McTendo, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Buried, blocked and forgotten.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Do some research on "mod_rewrite".
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1*nods*
- asaturn, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2fruit flies are also annoying.
- sirsteveh, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1He's exactly right. Applications are also making it such that my college friends' pages are helpful and informative if I want to learn something about them (they've been around long before applications), whereas my high school friends are all too busy SuperPoking their Top Friends to actually update any real profile information.
- starkraving, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Just because there are no marketing costs, doesn't mean there aren't any deployment costs. A popular app can destroy a server much like being Dugg... and that's not Facebook's servers, that's *your* server.
- wmarkusen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Thank you. I will. Cheers.!
- Yrlec, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You know, there's a place with richer API and bigger userbase than Facebook...it's called the Internet!
- smek2, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3...and another facebook related entry. And who gives a damn if its "Facebook" and not "FaceBook"?!
- bigboss0101, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0facebook sucks like hell.. i dont know why people use it. I think digg is atleast 100 times more useful than facebook
- aaliymah112, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1That's true. But there was also hi5, which people seemed to have forgotten. I know I have. Technically, My Space was a fad and it also sucked. In comparison to Facebook, facebook is more worth it. I think the reason people ran from Myspace, isn't so much because something better came along, but that it was proven that there were soooooo much pervs on the site. But until a new craze comes along, or until a new release about the people on the site comes out as in the case with Myspace, people are gonna stick with facebook.
- diggcaballa, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0thanks
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0Tomato, tomato. Oh wait...
- wealer, on 10/10/2007, -6/+1Facebook offers developers the chance to make the ultimate gadget and put in front of only those of whom want it. It's no wonder there are some many great apps being developed--so quickly.
- wmarkusen, on 10/10/2007, -11/+6Call me a fruit fly. I'm considering writing a Facebook app based off of my site: http://www.hadtosay.com. Clearly its the latest and greatest thing to do.
- avisotin, on 10/10/2007, -11/+2Buried. I do not care about fruit flies and I do not care about Facebook.
