I tried to goto lots of questions on this forum but could not find one useful so i decided to ask one myself.
I want to pull the birthday's of all the friends in the users friend list.
After going through a lot of stuff i found there are 2 ways to do that
Graph API
FQL Query
So, my questions are
Q1. which one of them is better/easy to integrate in the app.
Q2. http://developers.facebook.com/docs/tutorials/androidsdk/3.0/scrumptious/ is this tutorial useful for what i want to do.
Q3. If i use Graph API/FQL Query , could you please give me a link which is helpful or a Code snippet
Thanks In Advance,
Eriz
You probably want to go for the Graph API as this is usually a more simple approach.
You can check out this link to see how retrieving a list of friends are completed in API 3.0.
Hope this helps.

I'm working on an android app, and I wanted to make one like whatsdog, just for the knowledge.
Does anyone know what kind of API or SDK whatsdog uses to give a notification as soon as any of my contacts come online?
I searched a lot but got no answer so I thought I would ask here!
Any help will be appreciated!
Whatsdog may have taken permission from whatsapp officially for this purpose !
You can receive data via content provider . or if the third party app provide sdk or api , that will be another option .
Thanks
Is there anyway, using either facebook grap api or any other method to find out which of my facebook friends are android users ?
I don't think there is a straight forward method to do this.
I think one way would be to mark users by reading the 'via Android/iPhone/etc/' tag in their posts.
Any ideas?
Pls Note - I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask. I would happily move this question to any stackexchange site if you suggest me.
You can use the graph API, get the user ids for the friends, and ask for the "devices" field.
See https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/ and look for the "devices" name under Fields.
I am trying to get all the posts from user from reddit and put this in a list to show in an android app. The problem is, I don't know if the current reddit API supports android in anyway.
Somehow this reddit API wiki makes me confused, so if you people could point me in the right direction, that be be appreciated. :)
Thanks in Advance,

A simple Google search for "google contact apis" turns up their full documentation.
https://developers.google.com/google-apps/contacts/v3/
Beyond that you might need to figure out how to do simple web requests from within your application, this should be very well documented.
im developing an Android application for twitter that will sync data coming from the people you follow.
The problem is that:
http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends.json
provides me the last 100 persons ive followed and i wanted to display only 20 for each 'page'.
I believe that the 'cursor' parameter doesnt do what i need, so i'm trying to figure out a way to store it.
Can you guys give me enlightenment?
Thanks in advance
You should be able to add a parameter count=, and combine this with the cursor parameter. Try
http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/friends.json?count=20&cursor=-1
