Hello,

Thanks to Duane M. - the Rubyist behind the Connect At College  
Facebook app - the 2nd rfacebook Sightings posting is now online.

On tips, tricks or advice for developers getting started with  
Facebook development and rfacebook Duane M. writes:

Track everything. Don’t delete records - mark them deleted, so you  
can report on them later. Implement Facebook’s post\_remove option  
(which gives you one last shot at a user who has removed your app) to  
tag users who remove your app. Facebook’s standard statistics only  
tell you adds/drops in the last 24hrs, but you should be able to do  
your own reporting on whatever window you want.

Standardize your logging enough that you have audit trails and can  
track your most (and least) popular actions, and then do something  
about it.

Using the rfacebook gem? Tell us about your Facebook app on the  
rfacebook Mailing List/Forum and get highlighted in the rfacebook  
Sightings series. More @ [http://groups.google.com/group/rfacebook](http://groups.google.com/group/rfacebook)

Cheers.
