Great News For Social Game Developers

Facebook and Adobe have partnered to create Facebook platform libraries for Flash.

Basically this makes it a lot easier for developers to plug the Facebook platform into their Flash games - which takes a lot of the burden from the developer in terms of managing friends lists, avatar/user images, etc. and lets them focus on making great games.

You can find out more here.

Thanks to Dale at Moket for giving me the heads up!

I was thinking of using Facebook so I don't have to manage user logins myself, but it would have been a mash of flash and php. Now that this is available as pure as3 it pretty much settles it :).
