Facebook Asks Developers to Agree to Social Contract

Yesterday Facebook formally announced the launch of the new design and there were a significant number of changes. Much of the driving force behind the new profile design was the pollution being created by a practically limitless number of applications on user profiles. Developers were also taking advantage of weaknesses in the platform to help their applications grow. Over the past few weeks, it has become clear that exploiting those weaknesses in any way (constituting a “gray area”) would result in the application being banned.

With the launch of the new profile, a “gray area” remains and Facebook knows it.
