It seems like your app is simple enough to work well inside a fan page tab. Perhaps require the person to LIKE the page in order to use it, generating a viral "discovery story" in their friends' news feeds. We get a lot of requests for that sort of thing from our customers at fanbldr.com (plug!) and it works well.
Some users might also like their matching news stories delivered to them in their Facebook feed, but that is another issue entirely.
p.s. I signed up for your service. Seems like a great resource.
- danvoell 16y agoGreat Idea, I didn't realize you could run the app within the Facebook Fan Page. We are going to try that, I will let you know how it goes. Also I like the referral concept. I assume you saw forkly, when you sign up for their beta it asks you to refer 3 people to get bumped up in their waiting line - www.forkly.com Thanks!
- tlack 16y agoI saw that but I felt it was a bit too overt and pushy. A regular "Like to interact"-style feature is pretty common on FB and easier for a user to wrap their head around. http://www.facebook.com/oreo http://www.facebook.com/oreo to see some examples. Holler if you need any help: tlack@fanbldr.com.
- danvoell 16y agoMaybe you knew this already but if anyone else is reading here is a really simple example of the like to interact code - http://thinkdiff.net/facebook/how-to-detect-fan-of-a-facebook-page/ http://thinkdiff.net/facebook/how-to-detect-fan-of-a-faceboo...
- tlack 16y agoGreat link, that really sums it up. A note, though: some people report that fb_sig_is_fan does work. Worth at least trying out before you switch to <fb:visible-to-connection>
