I do try, i really do… Thing is i can’t be aware of every dependency i already have installed that other people don’t, so i rely on users feedback in cases like this.

No idea how i came to have python-pydot installed anyhow..

Seems to be working about half of the time. I had no problems plotting my account, but when my girlfriend tried it with her account (on my computer) the thing froze while plotting the graph.

I agree that dood has the right to level an unreasonable insult in proportion to the unreasonable insult given. “none” should have been more polite about it.

It dies at 35% for me, throwing up a “FacebookError: Error 4: Application request limit reached”. Was really hoping this would work…

This has a problem. It hangs before even reaching 10% for me. I tried it 3x with more or less the same result.

I totally agree that this comment was unnecessary, but the fact that you’re doing this voluntarily isn’t really an argument for that. Although you don’t get paid for it, you should still try to do a good job making a website.

(On a sidenote: which I think you do, keep up the good work!)

I already use a Facebook app that does just this (and allows you to share it with others). However, this could potentially be more flexible, stable, etc.

Sorry dude, but when you tweeted about having an inbox full of ‘win’ I was expecting something cool. No offence lol!

I shalll await something more of my kidney, like themes, Lucid news or some cool tweaks.

Keep up the good work!!

For the people getting “import errors” install the deb python-gnome2-extras, that should fix it.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./fbfriendsgraph.py”, line 12, in

ImportError: No module named gtkmozembed

when trying to start fbfriendsgraph.py. anyone else got that problem? the workaround in the readme doesn’t work either… btw. i’m running firefox 3.6.

How about you go criticise someone who gets paid to do this?

Or maybe even, i don’t know, politely inform me that something’s missing instead of getting all mardy about it.
