Radheef for Facebook, the little Facebook application that displays random words from the Radheef on the Facebook profile, has reached its 200th user. It took the whole of three months since its launch in February 2008 for it to get there! :S

I am launching a new Maldivian Facebook application which I had planned out as part of a scheduled series of feature updates to Radheef.com. This new Facebook application displays a random word, and its associated meaning, from the Dhivehi Radheef on your Facebook profile. Words are automatically updated everyday so as to keep your profile fresh and, perhaps even, educational.

Give it a go if it catches your fancy.

I made a slight change to Akunbakun, the Facebook application, over the weekend that makes Akunbakun challenges expire one week after they have been set. A message about the expiry is published to the mini feed and news feed along with the names of all those who managed to win that particular challenge.

I plan to add features to make it easier to find which of your friends has an active Akunbakun challenge running as an easier alternative to having to run through profiles to see if they have one.

Meanwhile, the number of users of the application keeps on increasing!

Akunbakun for Facebook, which I released last month, racked up it's 100th user today and so I'm celebrating the occasion by adding a new feature: Ranking.

Ranking is basically the success rate of the user on the Akunbakun challenges they take up. Numerically, it is simply a ratio between the number of wins and the number of tries taken. I added the feature to allow users to know how they are doing overall and to entice people to play more and get better scores.

Ranking, along with a few minor fixes and enhancements, has been rolled out a while ago and the Akunbakun box on the profile pages of all those who have added the application would now reflect the change.

Enjoy.

As I posted here on my blog, I launched a Facebook application called "Akunbakun" which is based on the old Maldivian game by the same name. Anyway, the application was a quick 'n dirty rush job and contained a few bugs and had several features left incomplete. I have now patched up all of the bugs found so far, completed the incomplete features and added a few more features as per requests by some users.

Fixes/Changes:
- Added a link for the application to the profile links (ie. under the profile photo).
- Fixed a bug that caused the list of challenge attempters (including the winners!) to not show.
- Fixed a bug that messed up display on Internet Explorer.
- Fixed some mistakes in the texts.
- Added some features to improve user experience.
- Increased the number of attempts allowed to three.
