		<description>Couldn&#039;t agree more, and well said. 

It&#039;s a shame the platform and API suffer so much from: proprietary lock-down, yet another mark-up language(s), confusing documentation full of references to deprecated functionality, over-sparse wiki pages that offer not much more than &#039;clues&#039; as to what path to follow and demo&#039;s that make references to the wrong api&#039;s. These past couple of days I have been attempting to learn how to develop fbml apps for a fan page, and thus far it has been quite a soul destroying experience. 

It would be nice if they could spend some of their purported billions to publish some professional, extensive documentation.</description>
