Gotta catch them all: Your Facebook Likes

(What does my new mug say about me?)

Just thought I’d let everyone know what I’ve been up to since I haven’t seen the sun in about a week and it’s not even due to the British weather. I’m designing a Facebook application for a class where we are learning how to gather social data from the Internet by using ‘digital’ methods (i.e. programming for hours, surrounded by empty cans of Mountain Dew and bags of Doritos). Ideally, the completed app will ask your permission and then stuff all of your Facebook ‘Likes’ into a file so I can analyze them. Anyways, head on over to the research project page to read all about the study and how it ties into my larger thesis!
