This is my fear exactly. To my understanding life has got its own tendency to unfold. The older you are, the more distractions you have. Chances are slimier to finish a degree in a well known \ respected university. This is my fear.
I love this thread. The last six month of frustration finally have a place to express itself.
I found Facebook's documentation to be awful, and their online tools not very clear \ friendly. What I did find immensely useful is the community's support and knowledge. SO is filled with excellent questions and “How To”s. Also Facebook's developer forum is quite good. In other words, my fellow developers... keep on the good work, help build a strong community, Facebook sure isn't.
