M&W recently attended the Drupalcon conference in SF and had a chance to sit in on a few really interesting sessions. Facebook (FB) applications have been around for a while now and most of us are familiar with the super lame “I threw a snowball at you”, or “you got bitten by a vampire” style of app so I wanted to see what else you could do with FB....

Even if you’re not already familiar with the concept of user-centered design (UCD), you’d probably rattle off a pretty good definition if we asked you to hazard a guess.  In short, it involves keeping the end user of a product – be it a website, a car, or an ATM card – in mind through every...
