http://developers.facebook.com/documentation.php?v=1.0&doc=fql <- thats the facebook docs on it.

Maybe a bit bland but I was thinking of using the facebook api so i found it interesting. Also I was thinking how the facebook api is a genius move by facebook. The friends network is a barrier to entry for any new vertically integrated social network, so if you can effectively use the friends network established in facebook it gives you a lot of power. Wider adoption of the api would strengthen facebooks position as well. They probably need to make the api more powerful, which they might not be willing to do.
