It looks like within the past 8 months or so that Facebook has changed to format of their data dumps to not truncate messages, as their previous data dumps were previously structured as one giant messages.htm file which would be difficult t

I built a elasticsearch importer for fb messages and a simple web frontend that did this pretty well for many many megabytes of messages. Wouldn't mind cleaning it up if people were interested in using it. [edit: will upload here later

We're using Tropo.com, pretty easy. Otherwise it's just mysql/mysqli/php/apache. Pretty straight forward.

How meta? A poll to ask about the number of polls. One good thing about polls is they do bring a good discussion and a nice demographic insight, when they are not overused.

How about using something like BSON to reduce overhead? (and writing it in C would help). http://bsonspec.org/

Running wordpress and PHP, nonetheless. Wordpress isn't light on resources.

1: You can turn off location data. 2: None of this is being stored, beyond a cookie. Of course, you can call back to the server with that data, but the server has your IP address, which is where the location data came from.

Try using another database: I've implemented optional support for ipinfodb.com, however, the code is fairly modular to add another service. http://codejoust.github.com/session.js/ipinfodb_demo.html

I added in support for http://ipinfodb.com/ (see bottom of README) which might be better than Google's api, although you need to register for an API key. You might want to give that a shot.

I thought about doing that. I've used a lot of coffeescript in the past, but I just didn't see it being a big advantage here. The biggest issue with using CoffeeScript here is that I wanted control over the syntax as I wanted to have less c

I believe the earlier comments have merit, thus I've renamed the library.

No. And the recently-posted paid visitor.js site does have a few advantages, most being that this is using pure javascript, while they have the server side doing most of the heavy lifting.

Google provides it as an extra for the JSAPI, no telling how long it will last, though.

I liked the idea, and had already needed parts of such a library, so I put together some stuff and made a free/open-source version. https://github.com/codejoust/visitor.js

I built a open-source version similar to this library for my own use using javascript browser checks and the google jsapi geocoding. It's on github at https://github.com/codejoust/visitor.js .

I've done a considerable amount of work in subprocess. It's API isn't amazing, but it does have quite a few great features and once you spend a little time with it really isn't too bad. Some of the piping features, along with shell argument

How about running the facebook javascript in a sandbox? Such as proxying the document.createElement and document.getElements* methods for the initial script while breaking it for everything else?

Totally agree with boredom is a choice. My parents don't believe in boredom... if you say you're bored, there's always housework, books to read, things to do. It's just a question of what you want to do.
