Working on the new Zooomr Facebook App

C'mon kids, now is the time to shout if you want something done - pretty much everything is possible using the API - feed me your dreams and I will make them happen :)

Ideas on the list:

1 - Photos from user
2 - Photos from a user with certain tags
3 - Photos from a users set
4 - Zipline posts under photos
5 - Zipline posts on their own??

Wow, lot's of comments here. I'm still waiting for the geotagging to be fixed and for some way to return to looking at all my photos, but from the point I am in the stream.

Thanks for the one and only comment - maybe people don't really give a toss about Facebook anymore..ah well..

On the geotagging front, if you've got a bit of spare cash you can try geotagging automatically using a GPS device, see here: http://preview.tinyurl.com/6du95j

I actually read your geotagging article the other day. Nice job.

As for Facebook, I was actually using the Facebook add-in until recently, when it stopped working. It'd be nice if we were able to set the criteria for what we want to see (users, sets, tags), the number of photos from each, the number of photos shown total.

I'd also like for the app to switch out pictures on a timed basis and be able to select the time.

In addition, I'd like my own photo posts to show up on my wall.

How's that?

STOPPED WORKING??!! Really? It still works OK for me...

So things _currently_ available in the new version (not publicly available yet) are:

* Seeing your latest photos
* Seeing photos from on of your photosets
* Seeing photos with certain tags
* Showing your favourites

Can you elaborate on the "switch out bit"? Do you mean that if a set contained more images than could be displayed then they would 'rotate'?

I've been looking at syncing Zooomr sets with Facebook albums (there's already a Flickr app that does this) but that would probably be a separate app from this.

I'm not sure which app photos appearing in the wall should appear in, but I guess I could maybe 'get it for free' in the synching app....

It's a good list though - thanks very much :)

I think it stopped working because I switched to the new version of Facebook. I can't get it to show up on my profile.

By switch out I meant I'd like to have the app cycle through my photos, either randomly or in order. This could be on a schedule I determine.

Make sense?

OK, nevermind...I'm an idiot. It shows up in the boxes tab. Funny, but I can move other boxes to the wall tab, but not the zooomr one.

Yeah the problem is that it's too tall for Facebook to allow it to appear in the profile page, so it has to live in the boxes tab for now. The new app will fit pretty much anywhere.

Yes the cycle thing makes perfect sense :)
