Facebook Fan Page – Redux

It’s been almost 3 months since Facebook deprecated the use of static FBML to create custom tabs and introduced Iframes. Due to a pretty hectic work schedule it has taken us that long to update our Facebook fan-page to utilize this new technique. View our fan-page.

So far we are loving the use of iframes, because unlike static FBML which stored a copy of your tab on the Facebook servers, iframes keep everything on your server which means no more of that ugly compress look Facebook like to add to your images. It also means its much easier to build a mini website into Facebook utilizing its own navigation rather than adding a new tab for each page you would like to add. It also allows you easier avenues to re-purpose content and functionality that already exists on your website.

One major downside of this new direction is that you have to have a current website up and running to store the content of your tabs. Since everything is running on your end and Facebook is merely displaying it in a window on their website it means you have to have “an end”, and that’s where we come in.
