Another Facebook app
Another day, another app!
Where Should We Eat?
This one is called, ‘Where Should We Eat?’. The basic premise is to address the problem of just that. How many times have you gone out to eat with friends & family, and no one wanted to pick a place. With the click of a button, you can easily find a random restaurant nearby.
I got to use the Yelp API and JSON for this, neither of which I’ve used before. JSON was super easy to work with, thanks to PHP’s handy “json_decode()” function.
I doubt this app will get much adoption since you don’t need to add it like most apps, and it doesn’t have a viral component, but it was quick and easy to make, and actually pretty useful. I’ve gotten positive feedback on it so far — give it a try!
