Re: Facebook (Score:1)
WWW::Facebook::API also supports the Facebook desktop api:

I don't have any experience with the desktop apps but as the maintainer of WWW::Facebook::API I can help you out and roll any patches out quickly.

I did briefly look at WWW-Facebook-API, but it requires the API key. The problem is that Facebook, like other similar API developers, assume that only compiled languages would ever want to access them from user-space. If you want to use a language like Perl you have to hide behind your own server, so you can hide the API key :(
Hence why I hope they eventually acknowledge a restricted User API that the user can have control over.
