    So will we. not sure if it is necessarily newsworthy though!
  • sharpshoot · 2 years ago
    Yeah, so why is this news?

    Lightbox (http://lightboxit.com) and Techlightnment (http://techlightenment.com) do this as well.

    When did mashable become a portal for free advertising?
  • Steve · 2 years ago
    Not to rain on anyone's parade, but is it newsworthy? Three Facebook applications built to get profiled.

    I enjoy the articles, though. Mashable typically pump out articles a little faster than the rest of the Web 2.0 blogs. The content is slim, but nonetheless, the apps get what they want -- some publicity on a blog in hopes everyone will flock to their app.

    How do I get in on free Mashable advertising? Can I give you my URL for some free promotion?

    I find something very misleading -- I don't have anything against "a small passionate firm who love to work other passionate people." What I do know what's misleading is that from my observation, there's not really a passionate if the end developer of the application is from India by the name of Vinay Kumar instead of your passionate team from Boston.

    There's nothing wrong with making a quick buck. But let it be known the developer is from India, not Boston.

    It's news, because this techy guys have took the risk to build a firm for a platform for which no one is sure how long it will last.
    I think with Facebook Application people are trying luck either to get benifit of being first or being flop.

    In initial period many of us added application just to check what is ..so those application has huge number..but the true application are very rare.

    Good luck guys..hope to see some real application

    FbFactory is driven by passionate developer from Boston. I am part time freelancer who currently agreed to provide support for FbFactory application during +5:30 GMT timezone.
    So I m not part of FbFactory ,but yes part of support team to have round the clock support for FbFactory client.

    I am not sure that any firm publish how you support your client until it's really asked as part of project agreement.

    I want to be free and happy to support FbFactory from outside..so don't feel that fbFactory is misleading anyone.

    Thanks,

    These guys have 30 users total using their apps, or am I missing something?

    Wouldn't you want your Facebook App dev team to have experience building popular apps? (or at least one)

    I have an app in "alpha" (no one besides the founder & his friends know about it) that almost has more users than all of their apps combined. =)

    FBFactory are either down or got more business than they can handle. I have contacted them a few times over the past week and heard nothing back. There is also no email or other contact on the site. It's a little fishy...
  • Chris · 2 years ago
    Have you still not heard back from FBFactory? I have also tried to contact them and haven't heard a thing. So much for their 5 day turnaround.
  • FBAppDev · 2 years ago

    I think FB Factory just went from Mashable to 'Smashable'. HAH! (J/K)

    This is outrageous, I called them and their 'so-called' turn around time doesn't comply. So much for that.
