Finally Facebook seems to have done a tiny bit about their own time-out issues.

Each FQL call to the Facebook servers was probably queued up in order of arrival, so if my page did 2 fql calls it had to wait in line twice before it tried to render the page… which would usually timeout more often than it should.

I’m guessing that is why Facebook released the new -> The batch API allows you to combine multiple individual operations into a single request. <- method to have my single page stand in line only once for a couple requests. I am still planning to wait a week before trying this out. Let other applications do the bug testing.

Also the new Facebook About pages include a new Fan feature. Neat. Maybe each application will start to include features only Fans can access. That will be fun.
