Facebook F8 Live - Facebook Platform Launch Details (mashable.com)

Don't get your hopes up about developing for facebook. The guy managing that devision, Dave Morin, isn't one to return emails. Even though he proclaims to be the guy in charge of the only stuff that matters at facebook (f8 & platform) he doesn't act like it.

We got an Mutual NDA from facebook a few months ago, and they never signed their end of it, and this Dave guy hasn't said a word since he failed to return it on any of the multiple dates we agreed upon. Good managers don't let stuff slide off the edge of the plate so unprofessionally on behalf of their company.

Hopefully we have a one time experience, but we are supposedly friends with Dave... or at least one of the 1000+ people he would have believe that.



The list of partners is interesting. Twitter? Scribd? There are a few other I know of that arent on that list too


I don't see any way of developing apps for Facebook... do you have to contact them directly? or?


http://developers.f8.facebook.com

I'm not sure if everyone has access to that yet, or if it's just people who were invited to the launch.


thanks, they've updated the site and I found my way :)


just to add to this, its dave fetterman who runs the platform, and dave morin works for him. also, i've heard from others how morin failed to deliver on promises of getting dev. access
