Hi Richard,

Happy New Year,

I see that the you have added the Facebook Like button, also Facebook Connect.

Are you planning on a tutorial in using Facebook Connect to log into websites or using OAuth from Twitter or OpenID
I've done a bit of research and being that php is free there are lots of tutorials, including their own documentation to create your own app but not that many using asp.

I did find http://advanceddotnettutorial.blogspot.com/2010/12/how-to-use-facebook-connect.html but its .Net

I was going to try converting the php but I haven't coded in that in a few years, I've got a few books in the pipeline to reacquaint myself when I have time so I didn't fancy making mistakes and causing problems with accounts.

Regards Alex

Personally, I have very little experience with PHP. I know it's one of those things that I need to learn, but I use ASP myself so I haven't had much need (and I haven't received very many requests for training on it).

I used classic ASP and some AJAX and set up the Facebook Connect stuff myself. I basically read the online developer documentation and put together a few scripts myself to handle the Facebook authorization. It wasn't too hard.

If there's enough interest, I could put together a tutorial explaining what I've done... so speak up if you're interested.
