Almost a year ago, Facebook stopped supporting the API methods that were being used on the site to integrate this site with Facebook. Fixing it would be a ton of work, with not much documentation out on the new methods. To add more to my "I just don't want to do it", I was planning a wedding and my soon-to-be-at-the-time wife was pregnant. So, it didn't get done.

Well, I'm happy to say that it's all better now =)

I've recoded the entire site to use the new Graph API they've put out (and it's pretty awesome). So status updates are shared, mods added can be shared, and even posts from the iPhone app are going through too!

I'm also working on a way to integrate Facebook Connect into the site registration part to make signing up here easier.

Also, I'm going to start putting in some serious time into getting the new version of the site ready for launch. My shop is self-sufficient, Hell City is over, I've started a new gig in Palo Alto, CA to try an make some cash, and I have no money to travel, so I'm stuck in front of my computer for a while =)
