How to make a facebook app?

Q. I wish to create a facebook app that randomly assigns a League of Legends character to someone that allows the app to be used on their profile etc. Similar to the app called "What pokemon are you?" as this app randomly assigns a pokemon to the user and posts it onto their wall and news feed. I am no stranger to coding and/or learning to create things via websites so any help would be appreciated.

A. Well first you would have to confirm your mobile number, and then add the Developer Application.

What new apps will be coming out for the Zune HD?
Q. I'm planning on getting a new Zune HD, so I was curious as to what new and cool apps might be coming out for it. I know some 3D games and a twitter and facebook app but what else might we be looking at?

A. Currently, developers have access to the XNA Game Studio extension for Zune HD, which actually allows them to create games and apps for the Zune HD. However, Microsoft currently does not have a way of accepting app submissions and delivering them to Zune HD owners. I also heard that there isn't full support for 3D gaming in the SDK yet (even though Zune HD fully supports it).

People speculate that Microsoft wants to have a merged experience and have a Windows Marketplace for mobile, which would include Windows Mobile devices as well as Zune HD, but so far none of us know for sure.

How do I fix a bug on Facebook Mobile?
Q. A few of my friends on my Facebook Mobile app appear to be "not my friends" so I can't view their profiles on the mobile app. BUT on my computer, using the regular Facebook, those friends are there and I can view them and leave posts normally. Is Facebook going to fix this problem?

A. It's likely a bug on their (mobile) server code, so even if you had access to the API you still wouldn't be able to change it. You might have better luck submitting a ticket and patiently awaiting they solve it. (That's the problem with services owned by others, you're bound by their priorities.)

However, you may still want to get your hands dirty, if you're technically inclined. Searching around I found their mobile platform API is available here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Mobile
Good luck.
