I think Facebooker and RFacebook have their own differences that make each of them great while also falling back in other areas. I would love to see more native ruby object support in RFacebook as well as the ability to use restful routes, but I'd also love to see a little bit more polish and organization to the Facebooker code and I really miss the method_missing with the new design coming through (meaning in order to use Facebooker, the new API methods have to be hard coded into the plugin) ...

Thank you for all of the hard work on RFacebook. I'm just about to deploy some new apps to production using it, and have also created a "Quick FB" app template leveraging your work with rfacebook: http://shanti.railsblog.com/tinkering-with-git-quick-facebook-app-template I wanted to submit this code (see Rails section that I added) re: uninstalling for consideration in rfacebook: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Post-Remove_URL Matt - you rock, dude!

However rFacebook does allow a facebook app to exist within an existing web app easily and it would be a shame to lose this support.

Though facebooker also exists, I would choose rFacebook over it any day due to documentation and the number of active users. You have done a great job - either pass the baton or keep up the good work! Another word of thanks to Matt.
