For the last couple of months I’ve always been intrigued into why my facebook friend count NEVER stays the same over a period of 24 hours, that is no exaggeration.

At 1pm it will be 1095, by 6pm it will be 1099 then at 12 midnight it will be 1093, this without adding any new friends or manually removing anyone. It got to me so much I thought this would be my perrfect “first” application to create using the facebook toolkit

Well let me cut to the chase, the application works like this

1. First time the user logs onto the app, it will take a snapshot of the users current friend list.
2. Second time the user logs onto the app, it will compare the current friend list with the previous snap shot, at this point the user will be given the option to “save” the friend list to create a new snap shot, or leave the old snap shot intact.
3. If the user has indeed been deleted by someone, the application will provide a link to the profile of the user, if the link fails and redirects to the facebook homepage then the user actually de-activated their account.

I just saw this today and thought I have to post this.

Five hyped-up thieves  snag 23 MacBook Pros, 14 iPhones and 9 iPod touches — all in just 31 seconds

My 400D had a power board failure in June and has recently been fixed (Don’t you love warranty )

Well anyway, I was at a wedding this weekend, and off course it was a perfect a occasion to  get back into firing the Canon. You can find some of my favourites from the day in the portfolio section.

I did get into something new at the wedding, studio photography. At the reception where we were mean’t to be partying and eating there was a portable studio set-up in a white room. So as any inexperienced photographer would do, i grabbed a  couple of friends and started snapping away.

Okay so anyone that knows me knows im into web development etc etc, ive created a few wordpress plugins when ive looked (googled) everywhere for a type of plugin and it hasn’t been made, i get to making it. This google wave in my eyes will change the way people communicate and im looking to be part of that change by creating a wordpress plugin that will do the following:

• Create a “wave” linked to a new post/page
• Display that wave beneath the wordpress post (where comments would usually be)

With googles brilliant API’s and Robot tools this is definately possible , just intime for uni

Wikipedia on Google Wave

Google Wave is designed as the “next generation” of Internet communication. Instead of sending a message and its entirethread of previous messages or requiring all responses to be stored in each user’s inbox for context, objects known as “waves” contain a complete thread of multimedia messages (blips) and are located on a central server. Waves are shared and collaborators can be added or removed at any point during a wave’s existence.
