My eighty-eighth podcast is up. In this episode, I talk to Mel Sampat of the Windows Mobile team. He's written a desktop Facebook application called OutSync (link on Facebook) that brings your Facebook photos to Outlook and Windows Mobile. We also talk about how you can write your own Facebook apps with .NET and managed code. (This is the show that was almost lost but was rescued from the brink!)

If you have trouble downloading, or your download is slow, do try the torrent with µtorrent or another BitTorrent Downloader.

Do also remember the complete archives are always up and they have PDF Transcripts, a little known feature that show up a few weeks after each show.

Telerik is our sponsor for this show.

Check out their UI Suite of controls for ASP.NET. It's very hardcore stuff. One of the things I appreciate about Telerik is their commitment to completeness. For example, they have a page about their Right-to-Left support while some vendors have zero support, or don't bother testing. They also are committed to XHTML compliance and publish their roadmap. It's nice when your controls vendor is very transparent.

As I've said before this show comes to you with the audio expertise and stewardship of Carl Franklin. The name comes from Travis Illig, but the goal of the show is simple. Avoid wasting the listener's time. (and make the commute less boring)

Enjoy. Who knows what'll happen in the next show?

Hey cool Scott;

If you're looking for more information about Facebook and .NET, drop me a line. Most Facebook app developers seem to be working with "the Linux stack", but we're actually using .Net 2.0 and SQL Server 2005. And we're running well over a million hits a day, so we may have some more fun stories if people are interested in the Facebook thing.

That's interesting. I wrote a FaceBook application (out of a hobby) called SyncToOutlook. It syncs your Facebook Calendar with Outlook 2007. :) The link to my app is http://blog.gadodia.net/index.php/facebook-eventsync-for-outlook-2007/

Cheers.

Nice show, Scott. Did you record this before Google's OpenSocial announcement?
